In September 2008 Consolidated commenced a stringent tender process, progressing through four qualifying stages to the final round of presentations, which resulted in being awarded a 3-year Jobbing Builder and Fabrics contract, which commenced January 2009.

The contract ranges from minor building fabric repairs to re-planning of existing office space, regular maintenance services, building alteration work, painting and decorating, flooring and carpentry. A considerable number of projects have successfully been completed, on time and within budget. Consolidated have also been awarded additional individual contracts for much larger refurbishment projects.

One such project was the Gym Refurbishment. Refurbishment of reception, main gym, aerobic areas, managers office and shower and toilet areas. Works included flooring, decorating. tiling and installation of new shower cubicles, locker doors, seating, and mirrors. Inter-relating projects included the supply and installation of replacement lighting.

Consolidated were approached to assist with the re-stack project of three floors at the client’s London HQ. The scope of the services included building works, data cabling, electrical installation, AV media services, toilet refurbishment, storage & churns of 350 staff with full move management support

The primary objective was to assist with space planning to enable members of staff to be relocated internally which would address both the working groups alignments and to reduce their overall real estate space to reduce capital expenditure. With corporate branding changing the business it was also a good opportunity to upgrade office space to incorporate new breakout facilities, kitchen areas, new training rooms and to produce a more open plan environment.

A good working partnership was quickly established with the client providing clear direction & scope to deliver the work package. Consolidated acted as Principal Contractor throughout the entire process. The project was brought to a completion within budget and to programme.

We were recently approached to complete a total refresh for a floor of offices located in Canary Wharf. A full in situ refurbishment was carried out, meaning the business remained within their office space whilst we carried out the works. The scope included the installation of a new feature baffled ceiling and central hub, new carpets, new meeting rooms and focus pods, as well as 270 desks and over 300 user moves.

By acting as principle designer, principle contractor and QS managing the budget as well as utilising an open book policy, we were able to deliver the most hassle-free service whilst maintaining clarity and transparency with the client. And importantly, the project was completed on budget and on schedule.
