The Institutes Plant Room is positioned on the fourth floor and its energy centre is on the ground floor. In total 16 488 m² of secure laboratory, scientific resource, office, café and plant/energy room space.All floors are served by three central lifts and 3 staircases, North, Central and South.Each floor has varying uses. The Building requires a high standard of cleaning along with a proactive approach from its cleaners to ensure that the buildings cleaning standards are achieved. The contract is monitored and run by the use of Key Performance Indicators that require a monthly meeting, to enable the Facilities Manager of the building to meet with the Cleaning Contractor and discuss the way in which things are running.Usage of Consumables is also important and is monitored each month so that usage can be estimated and the correct amount of items brought to site at the right time of year.
