Client Overview

Spacemaker was entrusted with the construction of prefabricated accommodation and ancillary buildings, such as gym facilities, dining areas, offices, and other supporting infrastructure. The project also included the execution of external civil and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) works, ensuring that all aspects of the camp were fully functional and met the client’s specifications.

Our EcoSpace prefabricated accommodation units were designed to provide efficient, comfortable living spaces, while the ancillary buildings were designed to support the well-being and operational needs of the personnel. Spacemaker’s comprehensive approach ensured that both the infrastructure and facilities were completed on time and in line with the project’s high standards.

Challenges

The construction of the prefabricated accommodation and ancillary buildings, along with the external civil and MEP works, presented several challenges that required careful coordination and problem-solving:

  • Integration of Multiple Systems: The need to seamlessly integrate prefabricated accommodation with the ancillary facilities (gym, dining, offices) and external infrastructure, while ensuring that all systems (civil, MEP) worked in harmony, required meticulous planning and execution.
  • Logistics and Delivery of Prefabricated Units: Coordinating the transportation and installation of prefabricated units, especially in a remote or constrained location, was complex. Timely delivery and assembly of these units were crucial to meet project deadlines.
  • Tight Timeline: The project had strict timelines, demanding rapid construction while maintaining high standards of quality, safety, and functionality. This required optimized scheduling and resource allocation to keep construction on track.
  • Site Preparation and External Works: The external civil works, including foundations, roadways, drainage, and landscaping, had to be completed alongside the building work. Ensuring smooth coordination between the various teams working on different aspects of the project was essential for avoiding delays.
  • Compliance with Standards: The project needed to meet strict safety, environmental, and regulatory standards, including compliance with local building codes and client specifications, while delivering high-quality MEP installations (electrical, plumbing, HVAC).

Solution

Spacemaker delivered a comprehensive solution for the 650+ man furnished management village by providing EcoSpace units, which included not only the accommodation but also essential facilities such as gym and indoor recreation areas, kitchens, clinics, mosques, supermarkets, and other ancillary buildings. These units were designed to offer a self-sufficient, high-quality living environment, tailored to meet the needs of the workforce.

In addition to the accommodation, Spacemaker went a step further by constructing two football pitches and a basketball court, promoting recreation and well-being for the personnel. The village was fully equipped with a civil defence-approved fire alarm and firefighting system, ensuring safety and compliance with local regulations.

Spacemaker’s expertise extended beyond just construction. The company provided end-to-end services including design, manufacturing, logistics, installation, and ongoing maintenance, ensuring that every aspect of the project was delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest standards—no matter how remote the location or complex the requirements.
