Project Details

Category: Fit Out or Refurbishment Up to €5m
Project: Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre of Excellence (AMTCE), Dundalk, Phase I
Contractor C.J. Callan Construction Ltd
Client: LMETB
Engineer: Patrick McCaul Environmental Consulting Engineers Ltd, Hanley Pepper Consulting Engineers – Civil & Structural
Architect: Oppermann Associates

The project consisted of the first phase of a two-phase internal remodelling, refurbishment and high spec fit out to a 55,000 sq. ft. two-storey building in the Zerox Technology Park to deliver critical industry focused specialist training facilities in the Advanced Manufacturing and Technology space.

CJ Callan Construction Ltd was contracted to repurpose an existing Pharmaceutical Research & Development Building and deliver an Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre of Excellence. The works entailed an assessment of the existing building fabric and the demolition and refurbishment of Phase I works identified by the client and Design Team. The centre remained live during the programme and facilitated industry/learner’s continuing training throughout the build.

Fit out works had a particular emphasis on the compartmentation of the building, the provision of dedicated escape routes, and passive fire protection in addition to associated mechanical, electrical and life safety systems. The project required the re-configuration of the selected Phase I internal space including the forming of new spaces and escape routes to serve as an Advanced Manufacturing Training Centre of Excellence for various new technological advanced manufacturing training courses.

Various MMC techniques were employed to bring this project to a successful close including, BIM, 3D Modelling, Circular Economy principles, and most crucially majorly cross stakeholder collaboration with our client, design team, subcontracting and supply chain partners.

CJ Callan Construction Ltd are extremely proud to be part of such a prestigious project in the North-East of the country. The benefits from this project to this part of the country will be seen for generations.

CJ Callan Construction Ltd are a family run company with it’s roots firmly embedded in the North-East of the country. It is a testament to the area that this project was successfully completed with dedicated staff, sub-contractor and supplier base sourced from the local to area.

The standard of finish and attention to detail demanded by the Client and Design Team pushed our employees and sub-contractors to raise the already high bar we strive to achieve on all construction projects.
