This CAT B office fit-out delivered 21,183 sq ft of modern workplace accommodation for The Insolvency Service at its Stratford office. Completed within a demanding 10-week programme, the project transformed the 16th floor into a highly functional workspace that supports confidential business operations while providing flexible meeting and collaboration facilities.

The scheme included a large boardroom capable of operating as a single space or being divided into three separate meeting rooms through the use of two sliding folding wall systems. In addition, Virtus created four interview rooms and four dedicated meeting rooms to support the client’s operational requirements.

CAT B Office Fit-Out with High-Acoustic Meeting Facilities

A key requirement of this CAT B office fit-out was the delivery of exceptional acoustic performance. Due to the confidential nature of The Insolvency Service’s work, each meeting and interview room needed to achieve a high level of privacy.

To accomplish this, Virtus constructed a series of independent rooms beneath the existing chilled beam system. Rather than altering the base-build services, we created free-standing room structures with secondary raft ceilings and dedicated cooling systems.

Furthermore, we installed high-performance Optima glazed partitions and Ecophon ceiling systems throughout the meeting spaces. Consequently, the finished rooms provide excellent acoustic separation while maintaining an open and professional appearance.

CAT B Office Fit-Out with Bespoke Breakout Spaces

Alongside the formal meeting facilities, the project included two bespoke tea points designed to encourage collaboration and informal interaction. Timber ceiling rafts add warmth and character to these areas while creating a relaxed breakout environment for staff.

Moreover, these spaces help balance the more formal meeting and interview rooms, resulting in a workplace that supports a variety of working styles.

Infrastructure and Workplace Technology Upgrades

To support the client’s occupation requirements, Virtus installed additional Electrak power distribution alongside a comprehensive Cat 6 data infrastructure.

In addition, we assisted with the coordination of the furniture installation programme. This ensured a seamless integration between workplace technology, furniture layouts and operational requirements.

As a result, the completed office provides a highly functional and efficient working environment that supports both current and future business needs.

Delivering a Successful CAT B Office Fit-Out

Strong collaboration and careful planning enabled the team to deliver this CAT B office fit-out within significant budget constraints and a fast-track programme.

Despite these challenges, Virtus completed the project on time and to the client’s requirements. The finished workspace combines acoustic performance, flexible meeting facilities and high-quality breakout areas within a modern and efficient office environment.

Ultimately, the project demonstrates Virtus’ ability to deliver technically demanding workplace projects that balance functionality, performance and value.
