In February 2025, the Bovis Group once again demonstrated its expertise in the delivery of high-tech medical equipment through a large-scale operation in the heart of Montpellier. Organized on behalf of our client Philips, this project involved the delivery of a 3.4-ton MRI scanner, followed the next day by the installation of a 2.4-ton CT scanner at the Imacam Clinic, ideally located near the iconic Place de la Comédie. This complex operation was managed by our Bovis Midi Pyrénées agency, with logistical and operational support from our local branch, Transmanudem Montpellier.
Working in a dense urban setting requires precision and ingenuity. To ensure smooth operations and maintain the peace for local residents, the Bovis team scheduled this medical equipment delivery in Montpellier during the night. This approach allowed for easier traffic management and the safe hoisting of the devices into place.
The operation required the temporary opening of the clinic’s façade to allow direct access for the large equipment. Thanks to meticulous coordination with the clinic’s technical teams and local authorities, the handling process went smoothly.
With six specialized handlers and a fleet consisting of three heavy-duty trucks and a 100 t/m crane truck, this project showcases the Bovis Group’s ability to manage the delivery and installation of heavy medical devices in even the most constrained environments.
The Bovis Group operates a dedicated medical division focused entirely on the hospital and biomedical sectors. This center of excellence brings together handlers, technicians, and electromechanical specialists trained to manage the transport, handling, and installation of highly sensitive equipment such as MRI scanners, CT scanners, gamma cameras, ultrasound machines, and particle accelerators.
Across France and internationally, Bovis teams act as trusted partners to leading medical equipment manufacturers. Their role is essential in ensuring quick commissioning, a high level of safety, and full compliance with hospital standards. This expertise, combined with an integrated hospital logistics service, enables us to provide turnkey solutions — from receiving the equipment to its final installation.
Every year, Bovis delivers or relocates more than 120 radiology rooms, 90 CT scanners, and dozens of MRI machines, reaffirming our position as France’s leading provider in medical logistics.
Thanks to a structured national organization, strong local presence, and advanced technical resources, the Bovis Group is equipped to take on even the most complex medical equipment delivery challenges. The Montpellier operation adds to a long list of high-value technical projects carried out for hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and research institutes.
