Coca Cola, Distribution Site Development

The Opportunity

Here, the objective was to coordinate the comprehensive stripping out of the soft drinks brand’s Northampton distribution site, and the storage facility for goods manufactured across the UK.

The adi Group was given the opportunity to manage the delivery of multiple divisions and of independent contractors.

The Solution

Working under CDM as Principal Designer and Principal Contractor, adi Projects dismantled all racking, ensured its safe removal off-site and then made the entire floor good.

As adi Group’s full service division, adi Projects is able to manage the 360° end-to-end delivery of customer projects in an efficient way multiple contractors simply cannot.

In this case, we took a multi-faceted approach to coordinate adi Mechanical, adi Electrical and adi Building & Refurbishment to manage CDM, strip-out works, remediation and final site clean-up, while also taking responsibility for the work of the painters contracted directly by the customer.

The Benefits

In total, racking and associated items were removed from over 1,000 locations on site, which had the capacity to store over 24,000 pallets. adi Projects' coordinated site remediation work readied the facility to be repurposed for another use.

The project by adi was run extremely well from day one. Completing this kind of large-scale work is never easy,
however, adi had a great approach to the management of site health and safety, as well as contractor management, with good communication throughout. On behalf of Coca-Cola, I’d like to thank adi for all their help on this successful project.
