Furniture not fit for purpose - Give your staff the right tools!!

Situation: Coca Cola had outgrown their existing factory and administration offices based in Lisburn.  After searching for suitable new sites they decided to build a new factory and office block for 800 personnel.  They also needed to review the use and design of the new building in terms of new and projected changes in working practices.

Pain Points
 
Accommodating future needs                  The new premises needed to be designed to accommodate not only current but also projected future operational needs while at the same time reflecting their brand and new working practices.
Design The client needed to allow for more flexible working, better communication and staff participation leading to greater productivity.  It was also necessary to reflect their brand throughout the new office block. 
Costs The client required accurate costs for both the fit out (partitions, flooring, decoration) and furniture. 
Project management The offices needed to be fitted out in a short time frame.
Implementation The client needed someone to hold their hand and guide them through the complete project from design costing, through project management and relocation.


Solution: We worked with Coca Cola in the design and space planning of the new building.  On agreement of the design and space planning we supplied and installed all of the furniture, partitions, flooring and decoration.
