HARVARD INVESTMENTS LTD
LOCATION: 14 Harvard Way, Mount Maunganui
CM Consulting was engaged by the developer from the get go on this project, starting with numerous bulk and location drawing (site layout) options, displaying design alternatives for the site for the purposes of attracting a tenant/s.
The project design direction was to maximise the building footprint on a difficult landlocked 7000m/2 site at Mount Maunganui, accessed by two other tenants from adjoining buildings owned by the same developer.
This resulted in a 5000m/2buidling footprint with a joint access traffic system used by the 2 other building tenants. This was managed through a resource consent that was also required to overcome some of the land parcel being designated a flood zone by TCC.
The 5,000m/2 clearspan building was designed to accommodate 2 x units, consisting of 2,000m/2 and 3,000m/2 respectively. Unit 1 features a large 2 level office within the building, with the option of 2 x tenancies while Unit 2 has a small office design with options to increase the office footprint, subject to tenant requirements.
The building features precast permitter walls and a precast inter tenancy wall, so it could be unit titled for future proofing purposes. The 8m eave height accommodates large storage space options without the need for a fire sprinkler system.
Craig managed the conceptual design stage and prepared a base specification before approaching the construction market to provide budget estimate pricing, resulting in Foster Construction being appointed the preferred design/build contractor.
CM Consulting then worked with the client, Foster Construction and Kirk Roberts on the detailed design and engaged Hayson Knell for the resource consent process.
The project was successfully completed on time and budget to a very high level by Fosters!

CM Consulting was engaged form start to finish for this project which is based on a design/build model for a developer that required 3 road frontage units for lease or sale, along with a larger rear 4th unit for the clients business to occupy.
The client had full input into the design with Craig who managed the design team, contractor selection and construction process through to code of compliance.
The entire 4 unit development is designed to comply with a unit title model and body corp management structure.
Each of the 3 road front units are of varying sizes to appeal to the medium to larger trade unit business type use, with each using the same office layout with downstairs office and facilities and mezzanine meal/meeting rooms with kitchenettes.
The larger 4th unit at the rear, is designed to facilitate the clients business needs including a 2 level office, with open plan office ground floor with attractive entrance foyer and a separate adjacent meeting room. A managers office and large bathroom facilities complete the ground floor. Upstairs features a large kitchen staff meal area and 2 large meeting room/board room spaces with nearby additional bathroom space, that completes this highly specified office fitout.
The warehouse area is based on a clear span design and contains a large mezzanine area adding significant storage options.
A separate but attached 4 bay truck garage, is used for the business securing vehicles and plant, all opening onto a fully secured fenced yard with an automated security gate.
An added feature is the fully insulated panel roof for unit 4, with additional insulation qualities for all seasons and reduced noise transfer.
A successful project, on time and on budget constructed by Hawes Building Solutions.

TR PROJECT (MOBEL/RICOH)
LOCATION: 18 Whakakake Street, Tauriko, Tauranga
CM Consulting was engaged as the client representative project manager for this development after a referral from an existing developer.
As such, Craig was engaged to manage a design/build process to find a contractor that would be suitable to facilitate the single development entity with two interested parties as separate tenants.
The two tenant interests were Modern Office and Ricoh who had individual needs that needed to be incorporated in a design, that was future proofed for other business activities should either tenant vacate their space.
The conceptual design and draft specifications was sent for tender to 3 x local construction companies, whose pricing submissions were analysed by both CM Consulting and Crowther’s respectively. I Line were subsequently chosen to work with Blank Architecture to deliver the development project.
The total footprint is 2,657m/2 and is based on a two level office fitout, each floor of 400m/2 for each tenancy with individual access and fire rating requirements to meet compliance. The warehouse was split into 2 tenancies,1375m/2 and 430 m/2 respectively, separated by a removable fire wall.
While the brief was a little more complicated with the 2 tenancies and fire cells, the end product is an extremely functional design that facilitates both business activities. The aesthetics of the office integrated with the warehouse at the rear is a feature, with the office clad in aluminium panel and features a significant amount of glass with coloured panels.
The combined office fitouts are highly specified and adopt an open plan floorplan, with top end kitchen facilities and appliances. The structural steel members of the office are left exposed as a project feature, highlighting a modern industrial style aspect.
The road appeal of the office is a feature and this sits behind a large front yard with security fencing and automated gates
An extremely successful project delivered on time and budget!
