Project Scope & Responsibilities
BIO Construct Services was engaged to deliver the construction of a new facility within an existing warehouse structure. A comprehensive design package was provided by CBE.
The overall warehouse area is approximately 700 m², configured into four distinct zones that include clean rooms, CNC workspaces, and a temperaturecontrolled storage area. The project also incorporates a 206 m² mezzanine level, featuring a firstfloor office and groundfloor amenities, including a kitchen and boardroom.
Our project scope included:
- Supply, install and construct of 10 portable structural steel pods to house cleanrooms
- Supply, install and construct of CNC/ISO7/8 Cleanrooms per layout
- Supply, install of autoclave to sterile facility
- Supply, install and construct of temperature controlled storeroom
- Supply, install and construct of mezzanine, access via stairs
- Installation of all associated air handling units and ductwork
- Supply and installation of all electrical requirements
- Installation of all hydraulic and fire system and requirements
- Relevant Equipment testing and commissioning
