Construction & Fit-out
AIS has been involved in the construction of shooting ranges and training centres around the globe for more than twenty years.
This provides our professional project management team with extensive knowledge and experience in supervising and implementing projects of all sizes, from small-scale range refurbishment to the construction and fit-out of major military and police training complexes.
Construction management
At AIS, our project managers can supervise construction of the building infrastructure works, and co-ordinate the fit-out of the ranges with lighting, ventilation, bullet protection and small power systems.
We can provide Project Implementation planning, including detailed scheduling of works, to ensure that all phases of construction, fit-out and commissioning can be realistically achieved within the project's overall timeframe. Detailed programmes, progress reports and risk assessments can be provided, keeping clients up-to-date with the latest developments.
During Commissioning, our project team can manage the performance-based testing, to ensure that equipment and systems meet all of the requirements laid down in the contract.
