Project Description
Development of a derelict steading and dovecot to form a visitor centre with a new build steel frame extension to the rear to house the distillery process equipment and a glazed extension to front to house a café and servery. The project was split into three separate contracts with their own design teams and contractors. These contracts comprised:
- Main Construction Works
- Café & Visitor Centre Fit Out
- Distillery Process Fit Out
Due to funder requirements there was a need to start on site shortly after the design team appointment. This limited the time available for pre-contract design and planning whilst also necessitating a two stage approach to procurement.
