en.Wedoany.com Reported - UK contractor Kroll Collett has completed the building renovation of the James Parsons Building at Liverpool John Moores University in the UK. The project for the 13-storey building, valued at £4.3 million and designed by ADP Architecture, was implemented in two phases over a period of six and a half months.
The building renovation project involved the demolition and removal of existing MEP systems on the first, second, and third floors, reconfigured teaching and breakout area spaces, installed new partitions, finishes, and acoustic treatments, and upgraded the MEP systems. The renovation scope also included structural works, window replacements, asbestos removal, and the installation of a new ventilation system featuring localised MVHR units with internal air distribution.
Phil Evans, Contracts Manager at Kroll Collett, said: "Given this was a busy live site environment, the work was not without its challenges. We have a well-established project management protocol for such environments, requiring meticulous coordination to maintain safe access and segregated working areas. The client and wider project team played a key role, enabling us to deliver a high-quality renovation within a tight timeframe."
The project team included project manager AtkinsRéalis, MEP specialist Crookes Walker Consulting, structural engineer Curtins, and Optimus Facilities for building services installation. Dean Palmer, Project Manager at Liverpool John Moores University, stated: "Kroll Collett has successfully transformed a previously dated area into a modern and attractive space for both students and staff."
The completed renovation has been handed over to Liverpool John Moores University. Kroll Collett has also recently secured projects such as the decarbonisation contract for Chorley Town Hall and the construction of a new site for the Zoe's Place children's hospice in Liverpool.
