CRS had been engaged in ongoing discussions with Gate Gourmet regarding their need for additional chilled storage facilities. Time was of the essence for them, and Gate Gourmet required a swift response to meet their urgent storage requirements.
CRS emerged as the only company capable of delivering a comprehensive solution within the required timeframe. We also had a stock of new modules, as well as an in-house engineering team capable of making the necessary modifications.
Project Scope
The primary objective of the project was to design and construct a complex of chilled storage facilities with integrated loading dock pods for cross docks.
CRS was tasked with delivering a turnkey solution, including designing the complex and coordinating with their docking partner to ensure seamless integration between the complex and the docks. The project had a strict timeline of 12 weeks, which included accommodating an ongoing installation on the same site.
Cold Storage Solution
Our team of experienced engineers designed a complex that addressed Gate Gourmet's specific needs and unique requirements of the available Heathrow Airport area.
They optimised the layout to maximise storage capacity while ensuring efficient workflows for cross-docking operations. The design incorporated advanced temperature control systems to maintain the required storage conditions.
Despite the challenges, CRS executed the project successfully within the required timeline:
- We ensured efficient scheduling and ongoing on-site installation while carefully planning and coordinating our activities to minimise disruptions and ensure a smooth process at the busy airport area.
- Our commitment to meeting deadlines resulted in the successful completion of the project on the promised day. Our expert team’s proactive approach, effective project management, and close collaboration with stakeholders allowed us to deliver the chilled storage facilities within the 12-week timeframe.
