MEINHARDT
PROJECT INFORMATION
Project Overview
Meinhardt, a global engineering consultancy renowned for its technical expertise and collaborative culture, sought to optimise its leased space following operational growth. The firm identified an opportunity to create a more functional and efficient workplace that better supported staff collaboration and client engagement.
The project involved an office redesign to accommodate a reduction in floor space, returning half of the leased floor to the landlord. Key objectives included relocating meeting rooms, establishing a new reception and entrance flow from a previously unmanned area, and converting an oversized utility space into a collaborative workspace. The challenge was to achieve these goals while maintaining a professional, welcoming, and productive environment and keeping the office fully operational throughout construction.
CHALLENGES
- Reducing floor space without compromising operational efficiency
- Relocating key areas, including meeting rooms and reception, without disrupting daily operations
- Repurposing underutilised spaces into functional collaboration areas
- Completing construction in a live office environment with minimal disruption
- Delivering the project within a tight timeframe and defined budget
TRUE SOLUTION
TRUE worked closely with Meinhardt to develop a strategic fitout plan that balanced functionality, aesthetics, and operational continuity. Collaborative planning ensured alignment on meeting room relocation, reception redesign, and the transformation of utility space into a collaborative area.
Construction was carefully staged to allow the office to remain fully operational, with proactive coordination and clear communication minimising disruption to staff and clients. The project was managed efficiently, ensuring high-quality finishes, attention to detail, and adherence to both schedule and budget.
THE OUTCOME
Delivered within a four-week construction period and a budget of $420K, the fitout created a functional, modern, and welcoming workplace.
Key outcomes include:
- Relocated meeting rooms and reception flow that improve circulation and client experience
- Collaborative workspace created from a previously oversized utility area, fostering teamwork
- Minimal disruption to staff operations during construction
Post-project feedback highlighted the seamless management of a live office environment and the high standard of workmanship. Meinhardt confirmed that the project successfully enhanced operational efficiency while maintaining a professional and inviting workplace atmosphere.
