Understanding Serco’s Requirements
Serco required a high-quality modular building that could be rapidly deployed within an existing warehouse facility. Due to restricted ridge and eaves heights, traditional craning methods weren’t an option. The building needed to be lightweight enough to be lifted by truck yet robust enough to provide a comfortable, usable office space. Time was also a key factor — the entire installation had to be swift to minimise disruption and allow other trades access as soon as possible.
Lightweight, Efficient and Ready in Two Weeks
Cotaplan designed and delivered a lightweight, double-storey modular building tailored specifically for warehouse installation. Each section was engineered to meet the reduced weight requirements, enabling truck-based lifting and safe indoor placement. The entire delivery and placement process was completed in less than half a day, and the full modular solution was up and running within two weeks. This streamlined approach ensured Serco could move forward quickly with internal fit-outs and operational use.
