Congratulations to our partner company, Africus Co. Ltd. for the LEED Gold certification of SamYan Mitrtown! The 35-story mixed-use building is located in the Pathum Wan district in Bangkok and has a total area of 100,028 sqm.

EGS-plan has supported the project with enhanced commissioning services. Building commissioning is a quality management process, which verifies, that the technical systems of a new building are meeting the owner’s project requirements. Therefore, the commissioning has started early at the beginning of the SamYan project. In regular intervals, the construction of the project was verified by EGS-plan’s commissioning experts to comply with the design and the owner’s project expectations. The actual commissioning work started with finalizing of the construction and the startup of the technical systems. Our team also clarified the stakeholder’s responsibilities and provided installation and functional checklists, so that the startup of the building was a structured process, despite of the final hectic weeks of a construction project. The result is a building which works as intended with a low energy consumption, great thermal comfort and low maintenance costs.

After three months of work-from-home policy, EGS-plan has returned to the office to work in shifts since the beginning of June 2020. During the three months of self-quarantine, communication within the company has even improved due to daily telephone and video conferences, state of the art collaboration software and a great team spirit. Therefore it was decided to keep the daily group briefings to improve transparency and shortly discuss tasks and challenges of the day. This will further strengthen our sustainability consulting services to the benefit of our customers and their construction projects.
