Morson Praxis were appointed by CPMS to carry out the Detailed Design, Construction Information and Digital Capture for an extension to the Baggage Handling System at Southend Airport.
Due to the continued operation of the facility throughout the project, it was essential that the design and delivery of works were carefully phased. A key requirement was the close coordination between planned construction activities and the conveyor specialists. This necessitated that demolition and temporary works were fully integrated into the design strategy to minimise disruption and maintain operational efficiency.
From the outset, the Morson Praxis team actively engaged with all project stakeholders, including operational airport staff, to gather the necessary information to progress the project effectively. All engagement and works were carried out in strict compliance with airport access protocols and safety regulations, ensuring a safe and secure working environment while maintaining airport operations.
From concept to completion, a truly multi-disciplinary solution.
It was important that there was minimum disruption caused by the surveys, and the delivery team were key to obtaining this information.
The survey information was a vital part of the overall delivery and ensured that the co-ordination between Architectural and Structural elements were integrated correctly within the existing building.
Due to the full multi-disciplinary service offering the Waldeck team were able to control the delivery of information, ensuring that the design programme allowed the construction to be incorporated into the client’s access and time restrictions.
With a close working relationship with CPMS which has been developed over several years, all parties were able to fulfil the clients’ expectations for the project on time and to budget with minimum disruption.
Stuart Denniss, Director of Architecture at Morson Praxis shared:
“It was a challenging project to incorporate the design proposal into an operational facility, but with an excellent team effort from the consultants and Contractor we were able to deliver the project successfully and ensure that the client’s expectations were met with minimal disruption.”
