FLEXIBILITY DRIVES INNOVATION AS ATLAS WORLD DELIVERS A SERVICE AND PRODUCTS IN LINE WITH THE FAST PACE OF THEIR BUSINESS... FIREANDSECURITYSYSTEM INSTALLATION
F ire and security system experts, Atlas World, delivered a full suite of products and services to help keep premises, staff and leisure users at South Lake Leisure Centre safe and secure. Atlas World installed fire, intruder and pool alarm systems, access control, disabled refuge, disabled toilet alarm, IP CCTV system, PA and sound systems. The biggest challenge faced on the project was the unprecedented impact that Covid-19 presented. Graeme White, Head of Sales Director for Atlas World says, “Everything was affected, from equipment delivery, site operating times and resource availability. It required daily management, driven by the main contractors and championed by our on site team to quickly relay problems and potential issues to ensure unaffected project delivery wherever possible.
“A knock on effect meant that some of our supply chain partners actually ceased trading during the lockdown period. This meant we no longer had a supplier for the specialist pool alarm system that was required on the project. In order to prevent a major delay on the project, we set about sourcing the required parts and manufactured the complete system in- house, meaning project milestones were achieved as planned.” A privately-owned company with over 40 years experience within the fire and security industry, Atlas World works with consultant engineers, design and build teams, M&E contractors, FM companies and building owners. With Investors in People accreditation, the company’s commitment to staff training and development was evident on this project. “How our project team dealt with unforeseen problems to ensure
this project was delivered on time has to be the most satisfying aspect of this installation,” says Graeme. He also praised Dowds Group’s Contracts Manager, Tommy Graham and his team, for their “excellent communication and management skills. They were second to none.”
