Construction - BAM Nuttall - On-site
Speedy has provided an on-site facility, enabling the project team to tap into the Group's entire assets and resources.
Working in Partnership. Speedy on-site depot at 1.4bn Kings Cross Regeneration.
The regeneration surrounding Kings Cross in London covers almost 8 million sq ft of brownfield land. The project includes up to 25 new office buildings, 20 new streets, 10 new major public spaces, the restoration and refurbishment of 20 historic buildings and structures and up to 2,000 homes and serviced apartments.
The £1.4 billion scheme, which is expected to take around 15 years to reach completion, is being led by property developer Argent. Speedy has been appointed by construction group BAM Nuttall Ltd, one of the four main contractors selected by Argent.
The Challenge
With a large team of on-site workers, supplying tools and equipment for a project of this scale presents a major logistical challenge. Downtime - resulting from delays in the delivery of tools and equipment can add further delays. BAM was looking for a solution which could provide instant access to a wide range of essential kit thereby enhancing productivity.
The Solution
Speedy has provided an on-site facility, enabling the project team to tap into the Group's entire assets and resources. Staffed by a permanent and highly trained team, it stocks a wide range of popular tools and accessories, as well as providing repair, maintenance and inspection services. The on-site team also provides training support for operatives, running its award-winning toolbox talks on a range of health and safety issues. This is a flexible solution that will expand and evolve as the project progresses.
