Timeline
Jan 2023 - Jun 2023
The Brief:
The client was keen to implement a 'remove to reuse' strategy for the redundant FF+E on this site. The works would be completed in a 5 phased program of work with approx. 50 guestrooms per phase. BGES worked to a 7 day window per phase. Mattresses were to be removed to store for return on completion of each phase. Asset decommission in a number of Public areas were added to the brief at the tail end of the project.
The Outcome:
248 guestrooms and public areas were decommissioned during the 5 phase program of work allowing the main contractor to begin the remodelling/renovation schedule. BGES would work to a program of remove to reuse. Approx. 5050 individual pieces of FF+E were removed from site.
CSR & Sustainability
Working to the directives of Recreate Certified, Thomas Johnstone achieved an 87% reuse figure on all redundant FF+E during the 5 phased 248 guestroom renovation program. 87%/4396 of the 5050 resources were successfully reused. Read more about their sustainability credentials here.
