Project Story

This project had a number of inbuilt challenges. Firstly, the O&M manuals were not current which made surveying critical to understanding the building as it stood. Secondly, the risers were congested with services, so we needed a safe environment in which to work. To combat this, we installed safety points on a sheer wall, which after testing enabled our site team to clip on to a harness to work on the services. Identifying and managing risk with the strong PM and QS team made the project run smoothly. We were extremely proud to deliver this project in just 7 weeks, especially as at several points in the project the team had to amend the design swiftly to meet the customers' needs.
Project Outcomes
  • Completed project on a live site with limited noisy working hours
  • Satisfying all the stakeholders in this multi-tenanted live building with no complaints
  • Ongoing customer relationships and opportunities
