BACKGROUND:

In the early part of 2004, BMI Healthcare made a strategic decision to relocate staff from London and a number of their other offices to a new head office in Watford.

After evaluating a number of companies, McCarthy and Associates Limited were chosen to plan, fit-out, and furnish the building.

SCOPE OF WORK:

The first phase of this project required the McCarthy design team to visit the site and fully survey the building. All services were detailed, including floor boxes, lighting layouts, power/data, etc.

Drawings were submitted for building regulations approval; this included DDA compliance, and was carried out under the “Fast Track” building regulations Lantac agreement with Coventry City Council, Building Control.

PROJECT COMPLETION:

The project was completed on time which meant a phased moved by BMI staff could commence in December 2004.

The staff are delighted with the new facility, and as a result McCarthy Associates have been invited to tender for further projects.
