McLaughlin & Harvey hands Edinburgh M&E package to SES

12 Jan 17 Wates subsidiary SES Engineering Services has won a £5m mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) contract on Edinburgh University’s £25m Data Technology Institute.

Working for main contractor McLaughlin & Harvey, SES will provide full M&E services including lighting, heating, ventilation and an underfloor services interface on the development.

The seven-storey 9,000 m2 campus building, designed by Bennetts Associates, is to be a hub supporting the development of data technologies, data intensive research and data analytics in education.

“On a restricted site like this, the use of our off-site Prism facility to deliver ready-made service modules and risers will be critical,” said Colin Walker, SES business director for Scotland. “Any ‘live-site’ such as a bustling university campus presents its own challenges and we will be working closely with our project partners and the university to ensure logistical issues are resolved. A key part of this is our time and space-efficient ’just in time’ approach to deliveries which ensures the site is kept as clear and safe as possible.”
