Overview
Ede’s was appointed to support Sportradar Group with a complex office relocation from 8–10 Old Jewry to 88 Wood Street, London EC2, incorporating storage, large-scale IT clearance, and furniture resale. The project involved multi-phase works including packing, decommissioning, secure storage, clearance, and final delivery into a live fit-out environment. The key priority was clear: meet strict lease-end deadlines while ensuring secure handling of IT assets and seamless relocation into the new premises.
The Challenge
Delivering a central London relocation with tight time constraints and multiple workstreams required careful coordination and adaptability. Key challenges included:
- Central London access and parking constraints on a narrow road
- Managing large-scale IT and furniture clearance across multiple floors
- Coordinating works alongside other contractors during fit-out at the new site
- Maintaining secure chain-of-custody for sensitive IT equipment
- Responding to unexpected disruption, including goods lift failure during delivery
Our Approach
Ede’s delivered a structured, multi-phase solution, working closely with the client and third-party contractors throughout.
- Phased packing, inventory, and secure storage of IT and office contents
- Decommissioning, transport, and recommissioning support for IT equipment
- Large-scale clearance of redundant furniture, IT, and general waste
- Coordination with specialist contractors, including furniture and recycling partners
