The core of Dunbar and Boardman’s consultancy work can be divided into two main areas: ‘Vertical Transportation’ and ‘Building Maintenance Unit’ (BMU).

The role of a Vertical Transportation Consultant is to ensure that buildings have the correct number and size of lifts and escalators to move the requisite number of people and materials throughout the building, within a five minute period.

BMU refers to a device that enables cleaning of the façade of buildings and allows for heavy maintenance to be undertaken. The role of our Building Maintenance Unit specialists is to ensure the building can be maintained – accessed and cleaned – efficiently.

As architecture and design continue to push the boundaries with ever more complex structures and multiple facades, BMU expertise becomes increasingly challenging.

The number of lifts and escalators in a building will depend on its usage – office blocks will typically contain more people than residential and mixed use buildings. Offices, hotels and shopping centres all have their own particular challenges and interactions and when they are located on a common site the traffic elements need to be carefully managed.

Understanding the nature of the building in the first instance, how it is to be occupied and operated, will determine the solution proposed.

With more than 40 experts across 14 locations, Dunbar and Boardman is well placed to advise on a wide range of projects throughout the world.

By working as a team and pooling together our extensive knowledge and international contacts we continue to deliver great results for our clients.
