The project was awarded to Mansell Construction Services Ltd by the University of Exeter. 15 / 20 Case Study: James Owen Court • • • • • • • University of Exeter- 276 bed student accommodation refurbishment Framework provided fast track solution for project with immovable deadline Mansell Construction Services awarded the project 1st June 2010 Collaborative working between client, contractor, consultants (Mace) and subcontractor (MITIE Engineering) Heavily resourced project – 100 staff on site x 12 hour days x 7 day / wk The result: “ We are pleased with the framework process and truly delighted with the work undertaken by Mansells, we thought the project was almost impossible to achieve but their careful management and quality control delivered the [project] on time and just below budget” Senior Building Surveyor, University of Exeter. Team performance scores – 95% for Mansell and 94% for the clients team. 16 / 20 Case Study – MyPlace - Parkfield • • • • • • MyPlace is an innovative project to provide young people in Torbay & visitors a range of sports, outdoor pursuits and performing arts activities. Combines new build, external leisure facilities and refurbishment to a Grade II listed building. Torbay Council awarded the project to Interserve Project Services Ltd,13th April 2010, eight weeks after MC1 initiation. Project came late to the framework – RIBA stage F/G but via close working between contractor and client during Pre-construction the project was value engineered to align the design with the client’s budget. Success of the value engineering is reflected in the team performance KPIs with both contractor and client teams scoring 99% Project currently under construction and due to finish later this year. 17 / 20 South Gloucestershire Council “I am one of the audit team at South Gloucestershire Council and have recently completed a review of our operation of the CFSW. Just to give you a little bit of feedback, the staff that use the framework were very complimentary about its benefits and it is working well to date on the projects that are underway. More analysis will be undertaken as the projects are completed. Relationships with contractors are good and getting better with each contract. We are using a range of different contractors and all of them have been appointed via the mini competition process. So this has been a positive piece of work” Group Auditor, South Gloucestershire Council, 23 Feb ’11. 18 / 20 Finally: • • • • Noting the downturn across public sector Projects delivered to date Target: To track and reduce £cost per m2 Speed of OJEU to progress projects to market, through design and to site • Repeat users / Relevance of KPI’s • Shared Workshops – industry coming together to share cost and results 19 / 20 Questions / Comments Justin Bennetts: Justin.bennetts@devon.gov.uk John Greaves: John.greaves@nps.co.uk
