PROJECT
LIVSTUDENTACCOMMODATION, BELFAST
B&F BOYD ELECTRICAL SERVICES WAS TASKED WITH A RANGE OF ELECTRICAL SERVICES ENSURING THE PROJECT WAS COMPLETED ON TIME… ELECTRICAL TESTING
W ith an emphasis on passion for every project undertaken, B&F Boyd Electrical Services guaranteed attention to detail on the LIV Student Accommodation in the heart of Belfast’s City Centre. The accommodation situated on York Street provides a range of contemporary room types, and B&F Boyd was tasked with providing fixed wire testing, emergency light testing and installed drawings, all of which were provided in-house. The accommodation includes 717 stylish bedrooms, studio rooms and apartments across 13 floors. With shared communal areas and kitchens, retail units, courtyard areas, fitness studio and study rooms, the complex is an exceptional student facility. The Ballymena-based electrical firm was formed in August 2009, and through difficult times, managed to get established in a highly competitive
market. Using extensive knowledge and experience, Brian and Freddie Boyd set about building the business and getting it to where it is today. Standards, compliance and ethics are three keywords central to the company’s values and it is this that has helped them gain a client base that has facilitated slow and steady growth since the first year in business. Working closely with clients and making sure they deliver what is required are paramount to B&F Boyd. “We listen to what our clients want, and we create a personalised solution that ensures we meet any deadlines,” Brian told Ireland’s Electrical Magazine. “Like all large projects, we depend on every trade delivering their end on time. On these fast-paced projects we must liaise closely with all contractors to ensure we complete our tasks in
an effective way.” B&F Boyd was able to achieve this by being flexible and working closely with the site teams. Engineers on site used cloud-based testing software, Electraform. This enabled the engineers to see real time, where the project was sitting and any issues that needed addressed. In addition, it allowed for feedback to clients in a time-effective manner, so the project ran as smoothly as possible. Brian explained how projects such as LIV Student Accommodation allows them to evaluate if the processes they use are working. “We get the feedback and improve where it is required.” Freddie added, “On this project it showed that our processes worked for both us and our client. This project stands out because of everyone involved. Everyone worked really well together, and it really was one big team effort.”
