Cornwall Air Ambulance - New Operations Facility near NEWQUAY

WEST COMMS have been working with EIC Ltd since from early September 2011 on this exciting development for a New Operation Facility to base the Cornwall Air Ambulance.
Following a strategic review in 2009, and a move to temporary accommodation following the closure of RAF St Mawgan, there was a need to modernise the front line operations in order to provide an up to date and effective air ambulance service for the people of Cornwall. Although the existing base had served well for over 20 years, emerging statutory requirements to meet new clinical operating standards presented a strong likelihood that prevented continued operations from the old location of temporary portacabins and hardened shelter.

Following a competitive tender process, the charity appointing a principal contractor gave specific assurances that more than 65% of the supply chain for goods and services in this construction project would be locally sourced in Cornwall.
This project has been funded by a European investment grant of £1M. West Comms has secured the communication cabling sub-contract worth in the region of £4K providing Cat6 Structured Cabling and VGA links throughout.

Duration                               13 Weeks

Natural Retreats Cornwall

History

Natural Retreats offer luxury villas and apartments in some of the most beautiful locations in the UK and Ireland. Natural Retreats ‘Cornwall’ is surrounded by beautiful countryside in one of St Austell’s most tranquil, unspoilt valleys.  The development was bespoke designed and built by Roseland Peninsula Homes Ltd and has progressed smoothly over the last 3 years, now offering 34 Luxury Villas, in a private, secure and peaceful setting with unrivalled views of the countryside. It came as no surprise that Natural Retreats were keen to take on the management of the site to increase its luxury portfolio.

Requirement

In order to achieve the high level of expectation for this level of luxury accommodation, Roseland Peninsula Homes needed to offer the comprehensive in-room entertainment package that guests would expect from this quality of resort. The initial requirement included a telephone system with Call Billing/Logging Software to provide each Villa with its own Direct Dial Inwards Telephone Number, Internet connection and Aerial Distribution for Television.
 
Roseland Peninsula Homes also wanted the future ability to personalize the content sent to each villa in order to display individual guest welcome messages, and show promotional videos showcasing the retreat, other retreats, and surrounding facilities.

Solution

Understandably Roseland Peninsula Homes Ltd wanted to avoid the eyesore of conventional ‘mast & aerial’ outside each lodge. West Communications provided the solution to their requirement in the form of a Panasonic KXTDA200 Digital Telephone System, supported by a fibre optic backbone Network to Cat5E which provides HD quality pictures to all screens throughout the resort. Street services cabinets ensure all Villas receive Internet & IPTV, avoiding an analogue copper cabling installation which gives inferior viewing quality. Every Villa is provided with the full range of Freeview channels through the Vivo IPTV system.

Installed by West Communication’s fully trained engineers ‘Adam Balsdon’ and ‘Andrew Barkwill’ the company provided the telephone system, and the Vivo IPTV solution was selected as it could be installed over a prolonged period of time and is expandable to meet any future requirement, causing no disruption to guests, and effected in a matter of days.

Because of the development nature of the site, the IPTV system was ideal as it could be installed alongside the other tradesmen working through the different stages of completion.

On behalf of Roseland Peninsula Homes, ‘Richard Green’ said “We are seeking to offer our clients a comprehensive TV based intranet and web service, allied to the wide range of digital TV broadcasts available, whilst keeping our ongoing running costs under control.”

West Communications’ Iain Stewart said, “We opted to use Vivo Digital as our program manager to allow the client to manage their own information pages easily and regularly, as well as enjoying all the benefits of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) regarding broadcast and stored video material at a controlled initial cost.”

Result

West Communications installation and commissioning engineers ‘Adam Balsdon’ and ‘Andrew Barkwill’ said, “Once we had cabled each building and commissioned the server, using the system was not difficult, and staff training in its features and use, was simplicity itself.”
