The Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) is the Australian government agency responsible for enforcing Australian quarantine laws, as part of the Department of Agriculture.
Quadric was engaged on a fixed lump sum basis to refurbish the PC2 / BC2 areas over three stages while the facility remained operational at all times.
To achieve PC2 / BC2 certification, the areas must meet or exceed the regulatory requirements of the Department of Agriculture & Water Resources with respects current Australian Gorverment Departments which administer Bio-Security Standards.
Quadric’s project team carefully managed the detailed refurbishment of the laboratory spaces to ensure complete adherence to the required standards. The spaces exceeded the requirements and achieved compliance first time.
The works involved extensive alterations to mechanical systems which included 15 new fume cupboards, 42 fans, 7 chilled water systems, and laboratory gas and compressed air to be installed into custom medical grade joinery elements.
The works were completed on time and on budget to a very high standard.
