Achievements this period

  • Amended designs for the Chancellor's Building rooms to better suit the requirements of the users.
  • Created the initial AV designs for the Vet School rooms being proposed for upgrades (G.45, Langhill Farm, 1.27, 1.26, 1.25, 1.24).  Sent query regarding most suitable screen to go into G.45 to Vet School.
  • No asbestos issues for the work to be carried out in Kennedy Tower Division Lecture Theatre.  Planning for work to commence early June.
  • Formalising design paperwork for Western General Medical Education Centre has been started.

Issues

  • The Western General Hospital Medical Education Centre refurbishment has been postponed a month (beginning mid to end of May).  Unsure of when an AV contractor will be allowed on-site to carry out the installations as the building contractor hasn't been appointed yet, so AV tender can't be sent out until an indicative time frame can be included.
  • Waiting for estimates and staff availability from engie for work to be carried out in Chancellor's Building.  
  • LST project manager has resigned post, so workload will have to be spread out between existing staff.

Next Steps

  • Complete design paperwork for Western General Medical Education Centre upgrades and send out to AV contractors for tender (once we know when they will be allowed on-site to carry out work).
  • Arrange suitable dates for upgrades of Chancellor's Building rooms once engie have responded to the minor works order requests.
  • Complete tender documents for the Vet School rooms and send out to AV contractors.
  • Assign AV contractor to Kennedy Tower Division Lecture Theatre upgrade.

RAG Commentary
Overall rag now changed to amber due to the amount of time we have left to carry out all of the upgrades, especially with the uncertainty of dates for the Western General Medical Education Centre refurbishment.
