Project Description

This project encompassed the finalising fit out design layouts, securing Client Development Certificate approval and completing all fit out works to a hygienic food preparation standard.

The brownfield base building was extended to accommodate My Muscle Chef’s operations, with TOTAL completing the fit out works once the base building works are completed.

TOTAL installed a new base slab to the building to allow for sufficient drainage points throughout the facility. The new slab incorporated all falls to ensure each area of the facility is easy to maintain a clean hygienic food preparation workplace.

The fit out works cover all areas associated with constructing a fit for purpose Ready Meals Facility and include areas for receivables, storage (dry and frozen), preparation, cook, packaging and dispatch docks.

Overcoming Challenges

A tight program with the base building handed over in August 2021 and the client wishing to be in by December 2021 presented a challenge. To fast track the project and have all works completed, TOTAL ran multiple work fronts to meet the ambitious timeline.

Innovations

TOTAL’s buildability expertise and experience in the Food & Beverage industry provided valuable guidance and advice throughout the design stage and well into construction.
