This project was a high specification two storey fit out in a building which is well known to akp as we have already completed two other projects within the building.
St Vincent Plaza was completed in 2015 and consists of lower ground, ground and ten upper floors of flexible high-quality open plan office accommodation with associated secure parking at basement level.
The client had taken the tenancy of the remaining space on the Ground and First floors of the building (which are the last remaining suites in the building) encompassing 29,000 sq ft of office space.
The office was fitted out to a Cat A standard, and the works included modifications to the existing Cat A installation and a new Cat B fit out. The works were predominantly open plan containing approximately 190 workstations and facilities including coffee points, meeting facilities, quiet rooms, file storage, comms rooms, break out space, etc.
Other works included a new shower facility formed on the ground floor within the tenant’s demise as well as the formation between the ground and first floor of an intervention staircase.
The project was registered with BREEAM targeted to achieve a score of Very Good, however much to our delight it exceeded that expectation and it received a score of Excellent.

I want to take the opportunity to thank the akp team. The transformation is fantastic and I’m sure the children, staff and local community will enjoy their new facility for many years.
The Operations and Commercial teams have been excellent throughout and have been very supportive and proactive in their approach. I would like to especially thank Project Manager John for his efforts over the last couple of weeks, which were difficult at times for reasons out with his control, but he pulled a lot of rabbits out of the hat and got us over the line. Yet again, thank you for all your efforts and hopefully I get the opportunity to work with you all again in the near future.
I would like to thank Martin McColl, Mark Smith and the team at akp for delivering the refurbishment at New Aspect House. Blantyre.
Started and completed during a global pandemic, its a project none of us will forget and it was not without it challenges.

Probably my favourite project to have worked on! A great professional team, highly knowledgeable and skilled and with a great sense of pride in what they do. I would highly recommend them.
Another successful project completed and thanks for everyone’s hard work. The setting are delighted with the end product.
School / WLC were extremely appreciative of how John and team carried out works, excellent lines of communication with school throughout. Also, the site housekeeping, co-ordination, health and safety were all excellent.
This is the second time we have used akp for a fit out project in Glasgow, and I would have no hesitation recommending them or using them again.
akp worked well on site and delivered the project as expected. I would have no concerns using your services on subsequent projects.
akp carried out the office fit out diligently and completed on time in what was a very tight timescale.
I cannot have asked for a more helpful and professional approach to the fit out. Programme completion date was forced by lease events and was not only met but at below budget.
