Project:
Sports Direct & Flannels - Milton Keynes
Client:
Frasers Group
Location:
Milton Keynes
Project Value:
NDA
Project Duration:
Early Contractor Interaction: 25.06.2024
Practical works commencement: 1st July 2024 to 21st November 2024 (Sixteen Weeks)
Completion: 21.11.2024
Scope:
The brief included electrical services—power, data, LED and specialist lighting, and fire alarm systems and
mechanical services—ventilation, air conditioning, smoke extraction, and welfare area public health systems. Carbon Synergy delivered all design work in-house, with only CFD smoke extraction modelling provided externally. The result was a fully integrated MEP solution delivered on a condensed timeline.
The Project had to be completed prior to November Black Friday which gave only 16weeks from appointment to completion.
To add to the challenge, there was only 4 weeks from appointment to starting onsite with full design approval required from the Landlord prior to commencement of works. Carbon Synergy worked with the client’s architectural and fit out design teams, along with the Landlord’s representative to turn around a full design proposal in-house (with the exception of CFD smoke extraction modelling which was provided externally by one of our approved contractors). The result was a fully integrated MEP solution delivered on a
condensed timeline with no delays to the project.
Challenges:
- We worked with Frasers Group to identify the best programme of works which meant the project could be
completed in time for Black Friday requiring rapid design, procurement, and installation.
- Integrating multiple MEP such as Specialist LED and Smoke extract services alongside other trades
working on a no-slip program of works.
- Co-ordinating MEP services to ensure they are sympathetic to the aesthetics of a high-end retail finishes.
Key Takeaways:
- Internal design capability enabled responsive decision-making and programme control.
- Advanced planning and supply chain coordination was critical to hit tight deadlines.
- Proven ability to deliver high-profile commercial schemes under time pressure.
