Overview
- The formal start-of-works ceremony Tuesday had President Keiko Fujimori announce construction has begun to modernize the long‑unfinished Torre Trecca in Jesús María.
- The project is structured as a public‑private partnership with Consorcio Trecca S.A.C. as concessionaire and HV Salfacorp contracted to execute the works under a reported S/486.3 million budget.
- Officials say the renovated building will house more than 100–145 consultorios, about 300 clinical and diagnostic units including three MRI machines, and roughly 20 specialties to serve an estimated 1.0–1.4 million insured people.
- A key uncertainty is timing: the presidency pledged an 18‑month inauguration while earlier EsSalud project documents and media reports set longer schedules ranging from 26 to 48 months, creating a clear delivery risk.
- The site has sat unfinished since construction began in 1971 and was reactivated after a series of contractual updates—including ProInversión agreements and Adenda No. 2 in February 2026—with the main near‑term items to watch being schedule adherence, equipment installation, and staff hiring that will determine whether the complex eases pressure on Rebagliati, Almenara and Sabogal.
