AstraZeneca has created a 'people hub' from a redundant pharmaceutical production facility at its Macclesfield, UK site.
The building was created to enhance the collaboration of AstraZeneca's whole team, allowing members from a variety of departments the opportunity to have a common place to meet.
The new also provides employees with GMP change facilities, as well as a cafe, collaborative workspaces, office & touchdown rooms, meeting rooms and a network data hub.
BGEN was appointed as the tier one contractor for the job, with their primary task revolving around improving the building's total energy consumption.
To achieve this goal, the engineering firm has installed LED lighting, motion sensors and eco-friendly plumbing.
BGEN's Operations Manager, Paul Mannion, commented: “This one of multiple projects that BGEN has delivered for AstraZeneca”
“We have a strong pedigree in managing complex projects and delivering on client requirements, which in this case, meant focusing on sustainable development.”
A spokesperson from AstraZeneca added: "We have a long-term relationship with BGEN, they are a trusted partner to help us improve the infrastructure on campus and deliver on our future ambitions.”
