Maintenance & Management for Heathrow Airport Expansion
Project
Plans for expanding Heathrow Airport have been in talks for many years, recently the House of Commons have voted in favour of Heathrow’s third runway, expanding capacity at the UK’s busiest airport.
Heathrow aim to be able to handle 740,000 flights per year, ensuring the airport can compete with other European cities such as Paris and Amsterdam.
Solution
Heathrow and their contractors have been using Commercial & Contract Management (CONTRACTS) to its full potential, ranging from early stage design contracts for the new runway, through to project delivery and a configured RICS ICC contract for ground investigation contracts.
Result
Implementation of Thinkproject across Heathrow Airport’s Capital and Maintenance contracts is proving to be a great success, with on-going use since 2011 which has supported several portfolios, including Terminal Restoration and Modernisation and Products and Capacity Optimisation.
