NEW PORTAKABIN SOLUS BUILDING
PROVIDES PRECISE SOLUTION IN JUST TWO DAYS
After experiencing a severe fire,
Yeovil Precision Castings needed a quick and efficient solution for its sudden
lack of office space.
The company decided that a modular
solution was by far the best option and put its contract out to tender. After a
two-way pitch, Portakabin was selected to provide high quality
office space to house clients and top-level management staff. The decision was
made due to the speed in which the leading modular building company could
deliver accommodation that met all Yeovil Precision Castings needs.
Sean Wheeler, Project Manager at
Yeovil Precision Castings said, ‘We had specific requirements and criteria that
needed to be met as the building had to be delivered extremely quickly, but it
had to be of a high enough specification to provide an office for the Managing
Director and his visitors. Access to data points was essential as was the
overall look of the interior and exterior, all of which had to be extremely
professional, high quality and attractive.'
In just two working days Portakabin supplied two of its newly
launched Portakabin Solus buildings;
the most architecturally advanced relocatable building available for hire.
The Portakabin Solus building is the first and only building of its kind to be
designed without telescopic legs, giving it excellent aesthetic appeal. It also
features large, square cornered aluminium framed-tinted windows and fully
glazed doors, providing high levels of natural light, which is a key factor in
staff motivation and productivity.
In addition, desk-height access
to power and data communications points makes the office more practical and
comfortable to use for occupants.
Steve Docherty, Managing Director
at Yeovil Precision Castings said, ‘The buildings are of an exceptionally high
standard and have certainly fulfilled our requirements for high quality office
space for management staff and impressive hosting space for visiting clients.
‘The speed of delivery meant that
disruption was minimal and did not affect the running of our business. The
overall service we have received from Portakabin from placing the order
through to delivery and aftercare has been second-to-none and I would have no
hesitation in recommending them to others.'
The Portakabin
Solus building was
delivered with the pioneering Portakabin Customer
Charter, which promises to deliver buildings on time and on budget. The Charter states that if Portakabin fails to deliver a project on
time and to the agreed contract sum, the customer will be entitled to one
week's free hire for each day it is late*.
