Multi-trade coordination

Electrical, data, mechanical and finishing works run to one programme and one project manager, so trades don't queue behind each other on site.

Why it matters

A fit out involves several trades working in the same space in a short window. Left uncoordinated, they queue behind each other: electrical can't finish until containment's in, finishes can't start until electrical's done, and a small delay early on compounds by the time it reaches the opening date.

ILUX runs every trade against one programme, managed by one project manager, so the sequence is planned rather than worked out on site.

What's included

  • One programme covering every trade from strip-out to handover
  • Sequencing that avoids trades queuing behind each other on site
  • One project manager as the single point of contact throughout
  • Daily or weekly progress reporting against the programme
  • Site access, deliveries and permits coordinated centrally
  • Risks flagged early against the programme, not discovered at the deadline

Coordination doesn't add a layer on top of the trades — it's how the same team plans and runs the works in the first place.

Project management

Coordination on site needs planning before it starts.

The programme, the sequencing and the reporting all come from the same plan. See how a fit-out project is managed end to end.

Project management

One report, one number to call

Progress across every trade is reported against a single programme, so a facilities manager tracking several sites gets one status update per site rather than several conflicting ones.

Common questions.

Do we deal with one contact or several trade leads?

One project manager, throughout the programme. They're the single point of contact for progress, changes and issues.

How do you avoid trades delaying each other?

The programme sequences each trade against the others up front, so dependencies are planned rather than discovered on site.

What happens if a trade falls behind?

It's flagged against the programme as soon as it's identified, with a recovery plan rather than waiting until it affects the opening date.

One programme, every trade.
