Challenges & Mitigations
Challenge
Testing in Clinical Environments
Medical laboratories and the University Medical Centre had strict biosafety protocols and patient access requirements.
Mitigation
All operatives followed infection control procedures, wore PPE, and adhered to restricted access protocols.
Challenge
Occupied and Operational Buildings
Many sites were live, including student halls and lecture theatres.
Mitigation
We delivered the majority of testing out-of-hours (early mornings, evenings, weekends) to avoid disruption.
Challenge
Complex Estate Requirements
Each building type posed different challenges in layout, access, and risk.
Mitigation
Dynamic risk assessments, live site planning, and close coordination with Estates ensured safe and efficient delivery.
