Media City UK, one of the largest UK projects of the late naughties encompassing both pre-let space, speculative build, energy centre, car park and external areas, residential and Studio-Production Facilities used the adaptable W&S service to furnish the estate management team with the required Operation and Maintenance Documentation.

Our service was configured to reflect the differing project risks identified for the diverse Media City UK building portfolio.

The whole estate documentation comprising 12 discrete buildings is now maintained through the Inteli-Scan system.

Since early 2017 contractors carrying out minor or major projects to the EY portfolio are required to work with W&S in order to maintain the documentation requirements consistently from building to building.

W&S were first introduced to HSBC during construction of their World Headquarters building in Canary Wharf.  We managed the procurement of Base Build, Cat. A and Cat. B fit-out documents on behalf of Canary Wharf Contractors.  HSBC bought Inteli-Scan and have maintained the facilities documentation using the system ever since.

Inteli-Scan was utilized to support the sale and re purchase of 33 Canada Square, full documentation management of one data centre throughout its life serving HSBC and for further data centres still operating for HSBC.

We now look after multiple HSBC facilities, all of which use Inteli-Scan.
