Following the completion of this project, SES has been awarded M&E contracts for more BSF schools in the Nottingham, York and Bradford areas.

The 10-storey Rail House project is due to re-open for business in the Spring of 2010. Working with principal contractor OCON Construction, SES will totally refurbish and update all plant rooms, which will accommodate state-of-the-art communication equipment and cabling for all of the new offices.

To address the problems of this city-centre project, extensive use will be made of prefabricated service modules.
