RAH PROJECT2Part A: Introduction:Royal Adelaide Hospital or RAH is a a large medical facility construction project inSouthern Australia advancing under the public private partnership or PPP format. The nominalvalue of the project is over $1.85 billion. The aim of the project is to build a state of art treatmentfacilities.RAH is currently in the execution and control phase of its life cycle. This is evidentfrom the auditor’s report which mentions that the design and the construction work isprogressing under the supervision of sub-contractors (rah.sa.gov.au, 2018).
