If you search this thread for "construction management" and my user name, you should pull up a couple of more detailed explanations of the contract procurement they're using. The subcontracts are let directly by THFC's development company and Mace are the construction managers. Mace will have a late-completion-damages liability in the contract, but that's just the start of it. It usually ends up being a drawn-out negotiation, followed by a commercial settlement.
I do get this criticism but I'd rather someone film in portrait - if they don't have both hands free to hold their phone in landscape - than to not film the new stadium at all.That box looks really narrow
Turn your friggin phone round when your filming something you numpty

I’m guessing they’ve been bought in to fix the fire system panel that keeps failingSorry if I've missed something but Tyco/JC will what?
Basically, Tyco/JC are manufacturers/installers of fire detection/prevention equipment. They have installed a prototype fire panel in the new stadium and basically its f*cked and doesn't work correctly, so its being said that it needs to be reprogrammed as they're too far down the line with it to replace it. Stac works for a company that install this kind of equipment and did at one work at the stadium, however is now working on a railway station project.Cheers Sandro30 I don't do twitter so wasn't aware, however I have now read them and am none the wiser.

But then you'd have to change all the secondary panels and I should think all the heads too, far too much work. And its not Berlin, that wasn't just the fire systems that went tits up!! As I understand it the top engineers from Tyco are working on it, so should get it sorted!!Welp. This really is starting to scream berlin. Better start discussions with wembley on next season, me thinks.
I guess tyco or whomever won the bid on the system but perhaps its time for push to come to shove and get them out? I mean, just get Siemens or someone else in there to install a syatem that is actually proven to work? Surely that would take less time than having to reprogram and retest a prototype? It may add a huge cost but that is likely better than the very real possibility that this thing just continues to fail.
The past month has seen remedial works take place, software issues resolved and corrected safety equipment installations increase. Testing has also continued.
We are now liaising with the contractors and building control at Haringey Council to determine a schedule of commissioning, building test dates and building control sign-offs, along with formal test event dates.
