Mace Group

Integration inspiration

A high profile commission for our integrated service offer, the Mace Group has been appointed to provide construction management, project management and cost consultantcy in addition acting as client's agent on the new Ropemaker development.

Ropemaker is a 900,000ft2 high quality, sustainable office and retail development. It is located between Ropemaker Street and Chiswell Street on the southern boundary of the London Borough of Islington and adjacent to the City of London. The appointment covers the shell and core construction of the three storey basement and 21 storey superstructure.

Client British Land purchased the site in February 2006 with a consented, Gensler design scheme in place. Arup Associates redesigned the building and achieved planning consent on the revised scheme. Construction started in 2006 and shell and core is due for completion in May 2009.

Our integrated service team provides the client with a single point of responsibility for management, project delivery and success - creating shorter communication lines and a reduction in client administration. The benefits of integration are already being felt and Mace's Ropemaker team scored an impressive 38 out of 40 in its first Considerate Constructors inspection in May 2007.

Part of the Mace Group, mlogic is responsible for the £9.3m fixed price logistics package.

Features:

• Integrated project management, construction management and cost consultancy services
• 900,000 ft2 speculative commercial and retail development
• 21 storey tower and three storey basement
• Logistically challenging site
