MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) Facilities Renewal and Energy Saving Case Studies

• Renewal project of the key facilities that have become deteriorated over the 30 years since completion.
• We realized energy-saving and space creation by optimization of the installed capacity, installation method and layout.
• We also provided a management service from the schematic designning phase to the completion, in order to optimize the specifications and construction costs by organizing a competitive environment, and support the completion of the construction while continuing sales activities.

• For the purpose of renewing the air conditioning heat exchanger which reached its service life, improvement in the energy saving performance and improvement in the simplification of maintenance management, we provided a PM service with the aim of suppressing the costs concerning the repair work of the air conditioning heat exchanger and air conditioning system, and smooth implementation of business.
• We delivered the schematic design, procurement support, design management and construction management. For the purpose of organizing a competitive environment, we adopted a design-build procurement method to realize a reduction of the initial costs. The efficacy in the reduction of the running costs will also be proved as a result of the operation in this fiscal year.

• We achieved the first "ZEB (Zero Energy Building)" in Japan, based on the "coexistence of forests and people" as the concept.
• We took part in the project from the master concept phase. We investigated the introduction of environmental symbiosis technology and provided support in the selection of the design-build contractor and builders through a proposal system. Also we were engaged in design supervision and construction management by our PM service.
• We provided a total management service for construction of a new office, in the phase of work style construction, schematic design of fixtures, AV and ICT (Information and Communications Technology), procurement and relocation.

The "Office in the Forest" was introduced in the magazine "SHINKENCHIKU 2013 September issue."
