Challenges
This project was the first Cat B works being carried out in a newly completed North Wall Quay office building and as such brought with it some challenges when interfacing with the Landlord Shell & Core Services.
But with early engagement with the Landlords team we mitigated any risks to the program and ensured the fit out was completed on time & within budget.
Successes
Metec successfully designed & tendered to the Gilead Office specification ensuring that all Gilead corporate standards were met at costing stage and brought through to satisfactory completion. As part of this; Gilead required a stage 2 Comms room handover 10weeks prior PC.
This required focused engagement with the contractors to manage and deliver the spaces. Both Comms Rooms have Gas & Pre Action Fire Suppression system which increased the delivery requirement.
