Key issues, managed by Recom Solutions:
- Fast Paced Programme – This project was delivered in only 12 weeks from base build to handover. The mechanical strategy was challenging with limited ceiling or roof plant space available for the AHU and condensers needed for the project. Recoms involvement in the project was only 14 weeks before the handover date with an 800k tender turned around within just 2 days.
- Stakeholder Liaison – Recom Solutions coordinated service installation as well as daily delivery coordination with the landlords main contractor McLaren Construction. Challenging logistics working in the city centre needed to be closely monitored and timed, with on street deliveries proving challenging on a major road within the city centre.
- New Client – New client and fit out contract for Recom Solutions, we ensure we visited each of the existing Barry’s Bootcamp Gyms throughout the UK in the 2 weeks’ notice period prior to commencing on site to ensure expectations were realised. Weekly client meetings throughout the build lead to a smooth and on time completion.
