Points of Note
CRCPG was referred to the Kindred Group by one of our current clients and we were subsequently appointed by Kindred as its exclusive independent project manager for the design, fit out and construction and cost consultancy management for the creation and relocation of their new premises in 207 Kent Street, Sydney.
Engagement of our services was in September, 2018 and the objective was for the Kindred Group to be occupying their new premises by March, 2019. This meant that the fit out works had to be completed within 16 weeks, inclusive of the Christmas/January period from Lease execution to date of completion. CRCPG provided a one stop shop solution for the project.
The goal for the new office was that it must represent Kindred’s Group brand and identity, be smart, edgy and technologically advanced to ensure their business was aligned with their new global branding. We managed the entire delivery of the fit out works, appointing all the designers, builders, engineering, I.T. and building consultants to ensure we met the design deadlines, the budgets and project completion dates. We were heavily involved in the design process to ensure that several bespoke design features could be incorporated to ensure a distinctive base build and office design.
The design took 6 weeks and the build took 10 weeks and was completed on time and on budget with high praise from the client for the dynamic workplace environment that had been created.
The Result
Kindred Group moved into their new premises on time, at the end of March, 2019. The company were more than satisfied with the result, providing enormously positive feedback from the Sydney senior management team and staff, and also from their European offices – Directors of whom visited for the opening of the office in April, 2019.
