Challenges Faced 

The project presented a number of key challenges that required careful planning and coordination to successfully overcome:

 

  • Accelerated Programme: The project was delivered within a fast-paced 12-week timeline, requiring efficient scheduling, resource allocation, and close project management to maintain progress without compromising quality.
  • Complex Logistics: The installation of rooftop plant equipment via crane lift in a busy town centre location introduced significant logistical constraints. This included limited access, high pedestrian and vehicle traffic, and strict operational restrictions.

Our Solution

SMS successfully addressed these challenges through a strategic and well-coordinated approach:

 

  • Detailed Planning & Scheduling: The crane lift was carefully scheduled for a Sunday evening, taking advantage of reduced traffic and allowing for necessary road access and temporary car park closures. This approach minimised disruption to local businesses, residents, and the surrounding area while ensuring safe and efficient execution.
  • Collaborative Working Approach: Multiple teams were deployed across different floors simultaneously, enabling parallel progress across various workstreams. This coordinated effort maximised productivity, maintained momentum, and ensured the project remained on track.

With the dust now settling on the completion of the C-ALPS Hydrogen Laboratory research project I would now like to extend my thanks and gratitude for the success of a most challenging project. With some client changes and the impact of the various supply chain materials issues this has not phased anyone and the testament to you all is the conclusion of a great project! Your dedication and persistence has ensured that a great team ethos has been fostered in concluding the work.

Just a quick note to say thank you for a great job, the job looks great and a big part of that look is down to the hard work of your staff who performed to the highest standards. Looking forward to working with the guys again.

Savesta Construction Ltd was appointed as the Principal Contractor for the new £2.10m Dining Room and Science Classrooms extension project at Moseley Park School, Wolverhampton. From the reconciliation of their quotation and throughout the construction phase we found Staffordshire Mechanical Services Ltd to be engaged and proactive. Their representatives were always happy to engage with the design and progress meetings and provided valuable contributions where necessary. Their works were completed snag free, on time, within budget and without any accidents. Their final account was detailed and transparent resulting in it being promptly agreed. Given our experience, Savesta Construction Ltd

SMS Ltd were a new Company to us, via the Diocese. They were very professional in how they worked, and were very flexible in working around our school hours and holidays. We had new heating in our nursery, and they also helped out with other water / heating problems we had been incurring for numerous years. Of which, other companies had been unsuccessful. The staff and governors at the school were so pleased with their work that they have asked to include SMS Ltd in tender / quote process for additional work in and around school.
