Dean Simpson – Severn Trent Water

Glyn Clewley of Acton Relocation Management was engaged by Severn Trent Water Ltd to Project Manage a large relocation exercise at the Raynesway site.

The site comprises a number of office and operational buildings with the moves all taking place over three floors in the main office building housing some 400 staff. For logistical reasons the moves took place over two separate weekends. The moves affected the vast majority of individuals in the building and meant in most cases a move between floors.

Glyn’s role was pivotal in ensuring everything went smoothly, from logging and managing the cabinet relocations (each individual desk has a single drawer allocated) and using sub-contractors to unpack and repack in new locations, to liaising with IT to ensure all computer ports were working for the various STW and Contractors on the site.

Having experienced many similar moves in the past I found Glyn’s role to be invaluable in allowing me as Site Manager to focus on things that affected my own role or my client interests. Despite a couple of minor hiccups that were outside Glyn’s control the moves went very smoothly and clients were largely unaffected.

I am very grateful to Glyn for his hard work and for making the moves pretty painless for me. I look forward to working with him again in the future should the need arise.
