Valued at up to £10m, the two year contract includes a national office fit out and refurbishment of offices across London and the South regions.

“I’m exceptionally proud of our team’s unrivalled experience of working in a fast-track fit-out environment, which was recognised by the MoJ, leading us to secure this competitive tender.”
Wates Smartspace works across a number of sectors, including banking, retail, developers, pharmaceutical, healthcare, broadcasters, and owners and occupiers of commercial offices and public sector organisations. Project values range from £20,000 to £25m.
