An in-depth understanding of facility function and end-users operational requirements is at the heart of the KMCS approach to industrial projects. KMCS have delivered projects of this type in a range of industrial sectors over a number of years ranging from new build to fit-out of developers core and refurbishment / extension of existing space.

 

KMCS understand the need for clients to maintain production facilities while all is changing around them and have developed project management methodologies to ensure that these considerations are incorporated during the design phase and that production interruptions can be minimised.

KMCS’s approach to hospitality projects incorporates an integrated balance between management of upfront capital costs and ongoing operational costs. KMCS ensure that the capital expenditure on the project represents value for money and that a sustainable business both in financial and operational terms is delivered.

 

Also KMCS have been involved in a range of sports projects in Ireland, the UK and Continental Europe, from initial budget preparation and feasibility study through detailed design, procurement and construction. Major clients in this sector include the Football Association of Ireland (FAI), the Irish Rugby Football Union (IRFU), Horseracing Ireland (HRI) and Leinster Rugby.

KMCS has a vast experience of all types of residential property from social and affordable houses, private housing estates, multi-storey residential blocks, private one off large residential properties, retail and residential blocks sheltered housing for the elderly and nursing homes. Whether it is a single high value property or an estate of two hundred plus residential units we pride ourselves in giving each development the same attention to detail in order to get the most economically viable costs for the Developer in order to maximise their returns.

 

We can cost model residential schemes with particular attention to the individual Developers requirements. By working closely with the Developer we can reduce the repetitive costs by offering options on various aspects of the build.

KMCS have a wide range of experience with faithful restoration of historic listed buildings. We have worked on historic private houses, court houses, churches, commercial city office buildings, military barracks and the glass houses at the National Botanic Gardens to name a few. With our approach we work in close tandem with the design team and conservation architect to get a full understanding of the existing fabric of the building and how best to approach its restoration with a sympathetic view on maintaining the traditional fabric where possible yet achieving value for money.

 

One aspect of restoration works is that detailed attention is required for integrating aspects of modern living especially the installation of modern services and safety features throughout the property.
