- Student accommodation developments
- Hospitality projects
Capacity planning is agreed during pre-construction stage and aligned with:
- Project sequencing
- Tower-by-tower progression
- Floor-by-floor installation strategy
Where multiple projects are running concurrently, delivery slots are formally scheduled to ensure manufacturing continuity and programme stability.
Sterchele has delivered over 80.000 bathroom pods across the UK and Europe, demonstrating repeatable production capability at scale.
Other FAQs
What are the programme and coordination advantages compared to in-situ construction?
Bathroom pods reduce site complexity by combining trades into a factory-finished unit, improving quality, reducing labour and rework, and enabling predictable installation and cost certainty.
What installation rate can typically be achieved on a high-rise project?
Bathroom pod installation rates on high-rise projects depend on logistics, crane access, and floor sequencing, typically aligning with one floor cycle per structural progression.
How do you manage programme risk if site sequencing changes?
Programme risk from site sequencing changes is managed through structured variation and rescheduling processes, including revised installation reviews, adjusted delivery batches, and production reallocation. Coordination with the main contractor ensures alignment, while early communication helps minimise disruption and maintain control of programme and costs.
