Banyards provided the on-site support to oversee the final commissioning of the M&E systems at the Whitworth Art Gallery

We monitored the commissioning progress against the activity schedules, witnessing all M&E systems; inclusive of Fire Alarm Cause & Effect, Emergency lighting, Electrical testing, DWS and HVAC systems including the interfaces with several sustainability systems (air tubes and solar systems) prior to offer to the client’s team, and proactively completed the site quality commissioning folder that collated all commissioning certificates, witnessing and reports into one central location helping to provide a seamless sign-off for ISG at the project handover.

The £15 million redevelopment, which has been supported by a major Heritage Lottery Fund grant, The University of Manchester, Arts Council England and other funders, has doubled public space and created state-of-the-art new facilities including expanded gallery spaces, a study centre, learning studio, and a collections centre.

Banyards technical knowledge and experience across all M&E systems was a major asset, we were able to rely on Banyards full support and recommendations to identify and rectify any issues that arose.
