Nortel Networks built a new state-of-the-art facility for their Photonics Division located in Botany, New South Wales.
The key element of the project was to accommodate a ramp-up of a small existing location to a high-tech research and development facility with a 24-hour operational period. The building also required the flexibility necessary to support up to 700 employees on rotating shifts.
Completed within a tight six-month time frame, from inception to occupation, the facility incorporates 3,000 sqm of commercial office accommodation; 2,000 sqm of manufacturing, clean room, and laboratory space; together with loading and storage bays.
Our experts joined HBO and EMTB to complete the design and construct process. Our services included full project management of an 8,000 sqm optical fibre component electronics manufacturing facility, MEP engineering, services construction, clean room and laboratory manufacturing services and process services, de-ionised water systems, central vacuum systems and specialised lighting systems.
