- Developed an efficient Energy Centre providing for the client’s long-term goals.
Client-Centric Solutions
Our client is well established globally within the pharmaceutical sector and specialises in the development and manufacture of allergy immunotherapy treatments. Their production facility had previously been supplied with utilities from a neighbouring factory. These utilities were to be disconnected, so the client required a new energy centre to be designed and built to provide ongoing utility requirements, including electrical power, steam, cooling water and compressed air.
Projective took the time to understand the client’s needs, engaging with all parties from the outset to identify gaps and misalignments. Through this collaborative approach, we delivered a tailored design solution that fully supported the client’s long-term goals.
Design and Build Responsibility
Projective supported the project from early-stage discussions through to detailed design across mechanical, electrical and automation systems. Our design addressed key operational challenges, delivering a resilient, integrated solution. We also oversaw implementation to ensure a smooth transition from design to delivery.
Projective took on the role of both the CDM Principal Designer and the CDM Principal Contractor (for the M&E phase) for the project.
Navigating Challenges
Challenges to the project came from:
- Limited space availability at the site to install the required plant.
- Constructability and operability being key elements of the design process.
- Supporting the client and the client’s team through the design and build process.
- Overseeing and coordinating the various utility network providers, including new off-site utility connections.
- The initial phases of the project were during and after Covid, which led to difficulties in both the completion of initial discussions and in material prices that escalated post-Covid.
Future-Ready Energy Centre Delivered
Projective supported the client through the process, ensuring their needs were met. The overall solution provided the client with a new Energy Centre and electrical infrastructure that provided their production facilities with a reliable, robust and efficient utility supply.
