Project: Multi-Ply Head Office, Blackpool

Overview

WLG secured the £1.5m contract to deliver the mechanical and electrical installation at Multiply’s head office for Eric Wright Group.

The team delivered the project in two phases. During Phase One, they installed water, gas, hydrant and electrical infrastructure within the new building shell.

In Phase Two, they completed the full M&E fit-out. Works included containment and sub-main distribution. The scope also covered lighting, emergency lighting and external lighting. The team installed small power and structured cabling systems. They delivered fire alarm, intruder alarm and BMS systems. Installations also included disabled refuge and disabled toilet alarms.

Mechanical services included gas, cold water and domestic hot and cold water systems. The team installed fire hydrant pipework and steam boiler plant. They delivered heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems. The scope also included compressed air services and full thermal insulation.

Scope of Work

WLG delivered the project within the client’s budget and programme by working closely with Eric Wright Construction.

A trusted supply chain and open communication between WLG, EWC and subcontractors ensured smooth coordination.

The project ran during the Covid-19 pandemic, when national supply chains faced major disruption. The team placed orders early and managed extended lead times to secure critical materials. Careful planning ensured materials arrived on site when required.

Strong management prevented delays to the steam plant and high-level fan heaters. Without this proactive approach, programme delivery would have been at significant risk.
