Article posted: 06 Apr 2011

In a step designed to save more than £18m by 2015, Thurrock Thames Gateway Development Corporation has moved into Thurrock Council’s Civic Offices in Grays, Essex, in the first stage of a transition that will see the council take over the powers and responsibilities of the Development Corporation. 

Business relocation specialist, Harrow Green was appoint principal contractor role for office design and fit-out and has project managed the move which required a comprehensive managed solution for interior office design and fit-out, contractor management, regulatory compliance and the relocation of people and offices. 

“We were delighted with the services of Harrow Green throughout a full strip-out, reconstruction and fit-out project, which had a very short time frame for completion and little margin for error,” said Jason Oliver, Chief Information Officer for Thurrock Thames Gateway Development Corporation. “The Harrow Green team contributed to the smooth delivery of the project, with specialist expertise brought in as and when required.

“They took pains to ensure that contractors from other firms understood how they fitted into the project at each stage. This relieved me of a huge burden, and allowed me to concentrate on the business aspects of relocating our organisation.”
