Opportunity
Design assessment reports (DARs) were needed for manufacturing facilities, an analytical laboratory, intermediate level waste storage and product storage facilities. Additionally, design and engineering services were required to upgrade existing facilities, including a blast chamber process ventilation system and an explosives facility.
Solution
As support providers for AWE’s sustainability of operations programme, a technical services framework was agreed to enable us to carry out the appropriate DARs and any relevant engineering proposals.
Outcome
Through our framework agreement we’ve delivered benefits to AWE including design innovation, openbook incentivised fee arrangements, knowledge of unique site constraints/challenges/hazards, integrated site-based design teams, application of targeted KPIs and cost/efficiency savings.
