The challenge
BlueSG provides a new environmentally-friendly, electric car sharing service in Singapore. It is a sustainable mode of transport that reduces carbon footprint as it has zero-emission of CO2, oduor and produces less noise. Earmarking 500 charging stations and 2000 charging points by 2020, BlueSG is different from existing car-sharing services as drivers’ need not return the car back to its origin.
The solution
Arcadis’ prime responsibility is to deliver project management services to BlueSG, ensuring that we meet the target timelines given, and deliver project excellence with quality and accurate work. Due to the challenges, scheduling contractors, telecommunication service providers and other stakeholders must be coordinated in a productive and efficient manner with limited room for error.
Arcadis works closely with architects to ensure that issues are addressed early to prevent any delays for contractors. We conduct pre and post-site assessments to all sites and help to give value-added solutions when problems arise.
