A new police building in Jersey has been delivered on budget and ahead of time thanks to the technical expertise of the team at TNG Consulting Engineers.
Acting as M&E Co-ordinator, the Southampton-based engineering specialists provided both advisory and supervisory services for the purpose-built police station in La Route du Fort in St Helier.
Directors Russ Pitman (MD) and Ralph Boden worked on behalf of the main contractor, ROK Regal Construction Ltd. TNG’s services included the assessment of the tendered design and the proposals for the mechanical and electrical systems, advice on the M&E programme of works and the management of the Ministry of Justice commissioning procedure.
Russ Pitman also chaired the M&E co-ordination meetings, carried out site inspections and was responsible for the commissioning programming for the £24M project.
The new building is unique as it combines police headquarters with an operational police station, custody suite and emergency command centre. This means that for the first time ever, all of the States of Jersey Police functions are located together.
Russ Pitman, TNG’s Managing Director said, “We were honoured to play a part in constructing this impressive building, which will play a critical role in serving the local community for many years to come.
“The TNG team pulled out all the stops to ensure this high profile project exceeded expectations, and we were delighted to complete the work ahead of schedule and within budget,” added Russ.
The States of Jersey Police’s Chief Officer was so impressed by the Team’s work, that he wrote a personal letter of thanks.
Mike Bowron, QPM (Queens Police Medal), said, “I have been particularly impressed by the team ethos, joint approach and shared effort that has been undertaken by the design team and specialists to deliver this fantastic facility.
“Every team member has played a critical role in bringing this project to fruition and I’d like to thank TNG for its dedication and professionalism. You have produced an excellent building of which you can be truly proud,” added Mike.
