The Mandate

Quantum was appointed to assist in project management and cost management for the renovation of the Admiral Hotel. This project aims to transform the property into a leisure lifestyle destination, with new facilities such as restaurants, a bakery, a bar, a gym, meeting rooms, and a pool. Our role includes helping with establishing a delivery strategy, overseeing procurement, managing the design team, and providing technical advice.

The Challenge

A key challenge is ensuring the hotel remains fully operational throughout the renovation process. This requires meticulous planning to minimise disruption to hotel services on multiple stages, for example while the ground floor, which houses essential public and back-of-house areas, undergoes a complete redesign.

Quantum's Execution

Our responsibilities included managing the design process, contract negotiations, and contract administration for the construction phase. We were also tasked with leading change management and overseeing communication between contractors and the hotel’s operations team. Ongoing project reporting and cost control were integral to Quantum’s role as the works on the project progressed.
