The $1.3 billion mega mall has over 600,000 sq. ft. of retail space and offers an astounding mix of retail, entertainment, lifestyle and food & beverage outlets. It is strategically located and fully integrated with the busy Serangoon Bus Interchange and the Serangoon Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Interchange Station, where the North-East Line and the Circle Line intersect.
This mall is comprehensively protected with a variety of fire detection and suppression systems in order to suit the building owner and tenants unique requirements, as well as code compliances. The construction phase and the fitting-out works for the 7-storey building with over 360 premium tenants was completed in less than 2 years. Moreover, as the mall was integrated with the public transport terminals, job scheduling was made more tedious. We had to ensure that our works did not disrupt the operation of the transport services, while at the same time meet the tight schedule given to us. RICO was really put to the test!
With such a demanding task and tight deadline, all aspects of the works from the inception to final validation had to be impeccably planned and executed. This involved huge efforts with regards to multi-agencies coordination, logistic and resource management. Works went on round-the-clock, but without compromising the safety of our workers and the general public. We are proud to complete the project and surpassed all requirements.
Today, the mall hosts large working and visitor populations, and we are very happy to have contributed to safeguarding their lives and properties.
