Financial services business - Sydney

Looking to relocate their workplace, a financial services business engaged MPA early on an ECI basis to deliver the fitout of their new space at Mount Street in North Sydney.

In an A-grade Dexus building we had previously delivered a project in for a luxury global brand, we were able to offer the benefit of relationships built and our knowledge of the nuances of the building – including guidelines, access, and protocols – to the program we designed.

Offering an ongoing service for this client, we mitigate any operational risks allowing the day-to-day workings of this environment to continue to function. Our service team focus on hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical assets and regular refreshing of floors and walls, to keep the space looking as new.

A home for 20 team members, the new workplace includes executive offices, both open-plan and enclosed workstations, utility store and comms room. With high-end and bespoke furniture and finishes around every corner, there’s also a private-dining room to entertain clients in with a customised premium commercial kitchen, a feature glass wall, screen and guest lounge at the front of house, parquetry floor with inlaid rugs and solid timber joinery throughout.

By being engaged early on this project, we were able to identify that the commercial kitchen required extensive underslung works in the occupied tenancy on the level below, including modification of existing services to facilitate drainage falls. The benefit of an ECI engagement meant we undertook inspections prior to determine extent of works and gain approval from landlord and tenant and completed installation of new drainage and modification of existing services over weekends to avoid any disruption to the tenant – and ultimately deliver this new workplace on time.
