Implementation of a Modular Concrete Cell Solution - Case Study: Ravenhall Correctional Centre 

In 2014, John Holland participated in the GEO Consortium’s successful bid for the Ravenhall Prison Project. In response to the tender, which invited innovative solutions, John Holland proposed introducing a modular concrete cell as a solution for secure accommodation. This case study outlines the development of the modular concept from tender to implementation, exploring how the success of this concept was critical to the project’s completion in late 2017.
