Matching accommodation to assignments
In our part of the world projects tend to be of two kinds:

1. Extensive.
The building, commissioning, testing and decommissioning of complex processing plant requires different specialists (in design, engineering, fitting and maintenance, health & safety, training etc.) arriving and leaving at different times.

We know how to phase in the supply of apartments accordingly and match people’s status to type of apartment (Elite and Essential).

2. Intensive
A film crew and cast, an R&D team or group of conference delegates can arrive at short notice requiring multiple apartments for a specific period. Does that strain our resources? Not at all. We’re all ready to mobilise.

We can create a solution by configuring accommodation as a “project apartment” for people who are happy to double up or whose occupants we can switch around. This can save money, since the charge is per apartment not per person.

a) For the duration ESA Elite apartments were designed to be permanent homes and we have furnished them as such. As well as two bathrooms, fully fitted kitchens, roomy bedrooms and generous living room, they provide ample storage space and secure parking, with the extra advantage of weekly housekeeping. An academic on a years’ research assignment or a manager on a 12-month secondment could live here in domestic contentment.

b) As a half-way house ESA apartments provide the above facilities to accommodate an individual and family while they take their time finding a permanent residence. Because they can live like locals, they get a genuine taste of what the town offers.
