Relates to the drainage plan and following Jupiter Construction reviewing the design and flagging raising concerns, a collaborative approach to managing the issue was employed in a value engineered way to manage the solution and minimise the cost impact to the client.
Another key challenge with this project was traffic management due to vehicles visiting the live public waste management site which was situated next door, with the exit from the waste site overlapped the entrance to the site that the project was taking place on meaning that traffic management, deliveries all had to be managed in a controlled way as did pedestrian access and egress and the use of robustly managed segregation and safe walkways.
The team involved in this project were very experienced from Contracts Management to Quantity Surveyor, Site Management and Health and Safety support, this extended to a robustly managed team of sub-contractors, Jupiter Construction prides itself on a reliable and suitably competent supply chain with a solid Pre-Construction phase built into all projects.

A cornerstone of Jupiter Constructions methodology is the strict adherence and commitment to rigorous quality assurance inspections conducted by the Site Manager and Contracts Manager.
In summary, our successes in this project led to a further build phase on the same site helped by Jupiter Constructions comprehensive commitment to quality, timely delivery, budgetary adherence and value engineering.
