AXES Partners was selected through competitive tender as the Lead Project Managers and MEP managers for Deutsche Banks Relocation from their existing office in Sanno Park Tower (occupied for circa 20yrs) to the newly built Azabudai Hills Office Tower (under construction throughout the design and procurement phases of the project)/
CHALLENGES:
A project with multiple internal stakeholders and governance procedures. Approvals and decisionmaking process internally was a complicated tedious processes. Dealing with the landlord and nominated contractors was extremely challenging as the GC’s resources were limited and processes were heavily dedicated by the speed of the contractors and Landlord.
SOLUTIONS:
We had to manage the clients and landlord’s expectations throughout all processes while still adhering to the strict governance procedures dictated by the bank. Every situation, change or adjustment required a different approach, and we had to adapt throughout the project while managing all the project stakeholders.
