New HM Government hub handed over in Birmingham
The project focused on the fit out of a newly constructed 14-storey state-of-the-art office development, to accommodate 4,300 public servants. The new hub provides cellular and open plan office space alongside specialist meeting and conference facilities, and a new caf茅/dining space on the ground floor. The modern design and layout will enable teams to come together, supporting the government鈥檚 target to streamline its estate and work processes.
The fast-track 45-week programme incorporated two sectional completion dates, enabling HM Revenue & Customs to take partial occupation prior to completion. This was a complex project due to the tight programme, sectional completion requirements and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
糖心原创vlog has sought to maximise the community benefit of this project throughout to leave behind a positive social legacy. Initiatives included the donation of Christmas dinners to local families, food bank donations via a local school, and a fundraising initiative to complete the National Three Peaks challenge. Through a concerted collective effort, the team and supply chain partners raised over 拢17,500 for Mental Health UK, plus local charities and community initiatives.
鈥淚t鈥檚 a great moment to be able to hand the keys over to our client team today. It has been a challenging project, particularly when working through a pandemic, but the spirit shown throughout has been outstanding, with strong support from the client and project partners. This is an excellent new facility for the teams moving to the hub in the heart of the city, and is another public sector exemplar project, facilitating collaboration across a number of teams to further enhance services to the public.鈥澛�
