Project Description

FHS is a key supplier of equipment for the Formula One circuit providing the top teams with components to have the cars running to peak performance. They contacted Renovo to organise their factory and office relocation, helping them move out of their existing space in Ajax Avenue, Slough to a new space also in Slough. Renovo were able to visit site to take a full brief of what was required, and to complete a full survey of the items moving along with the buildings we were working in. As FHS were relocating to a new larger space, the design layout of the factory and office was key to have the business up and running with very little down time.

FHS were relocating sensitive machinery which required us to use specialist equipment to carry out safely also identified furniture, which included cupboards, chairs and meeting room furniture to the new location. Included in the move was all of their IT equipment, including desktops, filing and desk and pedestal contents.

Services Provided

Renovo were appointed to carry out the office and factory relocation managing the moving of all furniture, equipment, desktop IT, and the provision of removal crates prior to the move to allow for staff to pack up in good time for the move. Renovo also offer specialist heavy equipment removal within the works.

Challenges Overcome

The relocation took place during the Covid – 19 lockdown. Renovo were able to utilise a safe working methodology which ensured compliance with Social Distancing recommendations. All of our staff were also checked for symptoms through temperature checks prior to working on site. Whilst working on site our staff also wore face masks and gloves to protect themselves and the client who was on site to oversee the works.

FHS were able to complete the move into their new premises on time, and also vacate their old building in time to handover to their landlord.
