Our client - an office fit-out specialist - was working to very tight timescales; a nine week project had to be compressed into five weeks. This meant all trades were working alongside each other simultaneously.
The situation presented two challenges; how to work alongside carpenters, HVAC engineers, decorators, electricians etc, while being able to safely lift the raised access floor tiles and pull in the cable safely.
Our solution was to work overnight, allowing us to have the entire cabling route exposed for the duration of the installation, without risking the safety of the other trades on site, or damage to the cable as it was installed. Working overnight presented it's own problems though, as the client was unavailable to answer any queries arising during the installation, so good planning was essential.
Our installation was completed early, and handed over to the customer with full test results and a manufacturer's 25-year warranty.
