Full electrical design services for a four-storey CAT B office fit-out within Glasgow city centre.

The project transformed existing office accommodation into a modern workplace environment incorporating open-plan office space, meeting rooms, collaboration areas and staff facilities.

A CAT B fit-out inherits its constraints. The landlord's CAT A installation fixes where the risers rise, what capacity arrives at the floor, how the base-build ventilation is zoned and where the fire alarm interfaces sit, and the tenant's layout has to work inside all of it.

Open-plan floors, cellular meeting rooms and collaboration space each want a different lighting, small power and data density, so the recurring question on a four-storey fit-out is whether the base build can carry the intended occupancy at all — established against the landlord's specification and the existing distribution before the layout is committed, not after.

Working under a design and build contract, the design included power distribution, lighting, emergency lighting, fire alarm modifications and data infrastructure.

The completed scheme delivered a high-quality, flexible working environment tailored to the client's operational requirements.
