29 Nov TATE CONSULTING SCOOPS TOP INDUSTRY AWARDS

Tate Consulting won the ‘Project of the Year – Collaboration’ award at this year’s prestigious Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) Yorkshire Awards and was also highly commended in the ‘Small Consultancy of the Year’ category.

The awards celebrate engineering excellence throughout the region and the winners were announced at a ceremony held at The Royal Armouries in Leeds.

The project win was for Tate Consulting’s work on Moda’s New York Square and Hestia’s Madison East and Mercer West at Caddick Developments’ £300 million mixed-use SOYO development in Leeds city centre.

New York Square consists of 515 build-to-rent apartments in two 16 and 17-storey towers, with far-reaching views over the ever-evolving Leeds skyline. There are two commercial units on the ground floor, which both achieved a BREEAM rating of ‘very good’.

The homes also benefit from first-class on-site amenities including a gym, co-working space, lounges, a private-hire dining room, cinema and a rooftop sky lounge and terrace.

Madison East and Mercer West comprises two adjoining blocks, which include 331 brand new build-to-rent apartments, including resident lounge areas and a gym, as well as outdoor courtyards, and 12,000 sq ft of retail, restaurant and ground floor amenity space.

The Small Consultancy of the Year award is for companies that have demonstrated an outstanding contribution to the design or refurbishment of buildings to exceed client expectations of project deliverables.

These include the ability to deliver projects on time and on budget, correct interpretation of the client brief, team collaboration at all project stages, added value management, efficiency through innovation as well as outstanding results against key performance indicators.
