Northern Ireland-based offsite manufacturer, McAvoy, continues to invest strongly in the growth of its SmartSpace temporary building fleet in response to growing demand across the healthcare, pharma, education, and commercial sectors.
It recently launched additional new innovative space solutions via its QSpace and ESpace single modular buildings. The business continues to experience high demand for rental projects in both the healthcare and education sectors, including a second, significant 10-year rental contract for University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust.
Investment in manufacturing capability has continued with the acquisition of a custom-built mobile gantry, increasing efficiency, and improving workplace safety. This commitment to investment in the business also includes ESG, digital technologies, recruitment, and people development.
CEO, Ron Clarke said: “The group continues to see strong interest in its proposition, and with the continued support of our shareholders, the company is in an excellent position to deliver its strategic growth plan. We are confident that our high-performing temporary and permanent buildings will continue to deliver modern, flexible, and sustainable space solutions to our customers. Looking ahead we are on track to deliver a significant increase in performance in 2024.”
During the past year, the business has delivered a number of key projects across the country, including a new Collaborative Research & Innovation Centre in Wiltshire, the pioneering ‘Low Carbon Pathfinder’ 900-pupil school at Redhill in Surrey for the Department for Education, and two 24-bed ward buildings at Antrim Area Hospital. It has also been chosen by the Department for Education to design and build a £37.5 m, 1,200-place Academy in Essex.
