Role

Responsibilities

  • Liaison and engagement with Environment Agency.

EDGE is appointed by Telereal Trillium to deliver Project Manager, Quantity Surveyor & Principal Designer duties for the demolition of an existing 8-storey office block in Kidderminster City Centre.

The key feature and challenge of the scheme is the building’s proximity directly above an existing major watercourse; the River Stour. Additionally, the site is highly constrained as it is surrounded by public highways on all four elevations. Upon completion, it is imperative that the existing podium structure & adjacent roads constructed above the River Stour, retain their structural integrity.

our service

Our duties included a full project management service including programming, contractor procurement & liaison, compilation of the Employer’s Requirements documentation, coordination of the project team and specialist consultants, development of all project documentation for inclusion in legal agreement, including Demolition Method Statement, Specification of Tenant’s Works and consultant appointments and warranties. Our role also included liaison and consultation with the Environment Agency, to ensure that the demolition methodology and scope of works would not unduly impact upon the condition of the existing watercourse, culvert and associated structures, culminating in the successful obtaining of a Flood Risk Activity Permit. 

Added Value

The main challenge of our role was to facilitate coordination of key project documentation between the various stakeholders, all for inclusion in the complex legal agreements between the Client and Wyre Forest District Council. We proactively engaged with all stakeholders, including both the Client’s and Landlord’s legal advisors, to ensure full coordination of the technical documentation, for inclusion with the legal agreements. We were also integral in the procurement of a specialist pre-demolition culvert survey, to include a 360-degree visual ‘walk-around’.

Benefits to Client

  • Provided an extended service beyond traditional core consultancy tasks, to include engagement with the Landlord & Landlord representatives in proactive progression of the complex legal agreements relating to the scheme
  • Procurement and coordination of specialist surveys and permits relating to the existing watercourse, including a Flood Risk Activity Permit and specialist culvert surveys.
