OUR ROLE

Greenway Associates were appointed to provide quantity surveying and contract administration services.

THE PROJECT

This unique and stunning gallery combines object richness with audio-visual immersion and interactivity to give visitors a realistic and memorable experience. Works included modification of existing M&E services, strip out of the existing Navigation gallery, installation of partition walls, bespoke joinery, showcases, graphics, lighting, AV hardware and software. For a seamless visitor experience, the physical displays and audio-visual components were designed to be integral parts of the exhibition structures. Greenway Associates successfully guided the project team through the procurement, installation and commissioning stages, to ensure a clear definition of commercial and contractual responsibilities between the various trade packages. We used our specialist knowledge and understanding of the industry to add great value to this project.
