| J Tomlinson awarded student accommodation contract |
J Tomlinson has won a £7.25 million contract to provide mechanical and
electrical engineering services for a new 922-bed student accommodation scheme.
The company has been appointed by main contractor Galliford Try to
undertake the M&E work on the £52.5 million development in Paradise Street,
Coventry.
The new halls will be built across three blocks of three, 12 and 14
storeys on the site of a former garage close to the city centre, with an
additional two low-rise house blocks. Further landscaping will also be created
including a recreational area for the students, as well as office and
maintenance facilities for the proposed management company AXO Student Living.
J Tomlinson has been secured to design, supply, install and commission the
mechanical, electrical and plumbing services for the project by Galliford Try’s Building East Midlands
business, which has been appointed by The Elite Group to develop the scheme.
“J Tomlinson has wide experience of providing both integrated building services or standalone mechanical and
electrical and plumbing services for clients, across many sectors, and we
are very pleased to have been appointed by Galliford Try on this student
accommodation development,” said Tony O’Toole, J Tomlinson’s managing director
– mechanical and electrical.
“This is a key contract for our M&E team and throughout the bid we
used our ‘One Team’ approach for all items, working collaboratively alongside
our customers and suppliers. We have a good working relationship with Galliford
Try and are delighted to be part of the team bringing this scheme to
life.”
The project is due to start shortly, with completion expected in August
2019. J Tomlinson’s project manager will be Phil Paddock.
