“ Central Quay is a modern, inviting-looking building from the outside and spacious, clean and well
looked after on the inside. It is an extremely well-managed environment and all facilities staff are
always on hand to help.”
Raymond Harvey Facilities Manager, ACCA
“ Central Quay is a high quality, modern building – it offers a fantastic working environment close to the
city centre with a breathtaking walk along the waterfront nearby. Goodman owns and manages the
building, which means that its facilities and their management are first class - from the cleanliness of
the building to the maintenance of the grounds and car park. No issue is too small!”

case study
As the largest private sector employer in Europe’s Energy
Capital, Aberdeen, BP turned to Goodman to provide a suitably
‘green’ and iconic headquarters to house over 1,000 staff.
Background
Aberdeen is the hub of the North Sea oil
industry and BP is one of the largest players
in the energy business.
BP’s Objectives
When, in 2004, BP announced its intention
to relocate from its existing sprawling office
complex (constructed progressively since
1975 and totaling approximately 500,000 sq
ft) to an iconic headquarters that would reflect
BP’s commitment to sustainability, they turned
to Goodman to develop the new building.
Winner 2009 Scottish Property Awards
‘Green Award’ and ‘Corporate Occupier of the Year’
The Goodman Solution
The Development Agreement was signed
in August 2005 and following the grant
of planning permission, construction
commenced in early 2006. With an initial
space requirement of circa 230,000 sq ft and
1,200 staff to accommodate, everything about
this project was on a large scale, 850 staff car
parking spaces were required (at 1:26 sq m
each, 15% above Scottish parking standards).
The heart of the building design is a central
unifying space dubbed ‘the street’.
This full height, 3 storey atrium runs the full
length of the office complex and provides
intrinsic meeting areas within a naturally
ventilated environment.
In addition, Goodman agreed to purchase
BP’s existing properties, extending to 14.8
acres, and implement a detailed regeneration
plan. For this, Goodman envisages a
sustainable, mixed-use development in line
with the emerging Aberdeen city plan.
The Result
Throughout this project, Goodman and BP
made sure that environmental concerns
were at the forefront. This resulted in 93%
of materials from the previous BP buildings
being reused on the new development.
The completed building was sold to a German
Investment Fund in mid 2008 for a price in
excess of £52 million.
The headquarters also won Best Bespoke
Building Outside Central London and Best
Overall Development Outside Central London
at the Office Development Awards 2008.
Date: May 2006 – November 2007
Location: Dyce, Aberdeen
Number of employees accommodated: 1200
Cost including fit out: >£45 million
Scope of involvement:
+ site acquisition and clearance
+ obtaining planning permission
+ design, funding and construction
of a 230,000 sq ft GEA HQ building
+ tenants fit out
+ acquisition of existing BP properties
iconic
headquarters
“One of the things that is immediately apparent when you
visit the building is how light and airy it feels. We’ve had
great feedback from both our staff and visitors. We feel the
development has achieved all our requirements – both in
terms of the space it offers and its commercial viability in a
competitive market.”
Andy Roberts, Project Director
BP Exploration and Production

case study
Upon receipt of planning consent in March 2009, construction work commenced in
June 2009 after a successful negotiated tender process with Greater Manchester Police
and the main contractor. The project achieved practical completion in April 2011.
Background
Manchester Central Park is being developed
as the UK’s first large scale Urban Business
Park by ASK:Goodman, a joint venture
partnership formed between Goodman and
regional developer, Ask on behalf of New
East Manchester. Following an extensive
selection process via OJEU, Greater
Manchester Police selected Central Park
Manchester, to form the cornerstone of its
property strategy and Goodman’s project
management expertise to deliver its new
Force Headquarters building. Ask:Goodman
is working towards the delivery of a new
Divisional Headquarters at the same location.
The Challenge
Greater Manchester Police is a single force
serving some two and a half million people
covering an area of 500 square miles and
required a ‘state of the art’ Headquarters
Building to provide the most advanced
facilities for its staff to manage the largest
police force outside of London. Following
an extensive audit of the Authority’s
requirements, a single building of 242,000
sq ft was procured. The challenge was to
provide a public building against an agreed
cost and programme to suit the complete
and diverse requirements of the customer
whilst integrating the facility within an Urban
Business Park.
The Response
Following initial discussions in 2006
ASK:Goodman was appointed to project
manage the design and procurement of the
new facilities in 2007. In partnership with
Greater Manchester Police, ASK:Goodman
developed a proposal to integrate the
delivery of the overall requirements against
the operational needs of the various
stakeholders. The requirement was also
to take into account the prospect of a
Divisional Headquarters (125,242 sq ft)
facility being developed alongside the
proposed Force Headquarters.
The Outcome
In association with its JV Partner and
Landowners New East Manchester,
ASK:Goodman delivered and managed
a co-ordinated development programme
for the development together with the
planned provision of the ‘A’ Division
Headquarters on the adjacent plot. Upon
receipt of Planning Consent and Full
Business Case Approval in March and
June 2009 respectively, works commenced
immediately on the 242,000 sq ft Force
Headquarters, a highly sophisticated office
facility with a BREEAM rating aspiring to
reach ‘Excellent’.
The six storey building with glass and stone
facades sits within a six acre plot and
provides in excess of 700 parking spaces
to support modern day policing providing
Grade A accommodation for a smarter and
more effective workforce with occupation
scheduled for Autumn 2011.
In one of the largest lettings in the UK
in 2009, ASK:Goodman completed the
development on time and on budget in
April 2011 and in addition have successfully
secured a further 125,242 sq ft in the form
of Divisional HQ providing a high quality
contemporary office building and police
station able to meet the needs of the public
on a day to day basis.

case study
The leading utility company, Three Valleys Water, set
Goodman the challenge of creating state of the art
environmentally friendly offices.
Background
Three Valleys Water is owned by Veolia
Water, part of the Veolia Environment
group of companies. It is the largest wateronly
supplier in the UK, providing over 800
million litres of water every day to over three
million customers.
Three Valleys Water Objectives
Three Valleys Water had offices spread
across the region and wanted to consolidate
their staff into a single building capable of
re-enforcing their corporate ethos, promoting
collaborative working and energizing their
staff. They wanted a statement building
that would reflect their approach to the
environment, whilst being flexible enough to
accommodate all their operational needs.
The Goodman Solution
Working closely with Three Valleys Water,
Goodman succeeded in delivering a new
86,500 sq ft building with the practicality
of a modern office, but with a much
reduced impact on the environment.
The design reflects Three Valleys Water’s
high standards in both design and
environmental performance throughout. It
features a full height statement Winter Garden
with water conservation measures including
rain water harvesting and permeable hard
surfacing together with state of the art air
handling systems.
The Result
The building, located at Hatfield Business
Park, was completed on time and on budget
in September 2008. Three Valleys Water
completed their fit out and occupied
their new headquarters in April 2009.
Date: August 2006 – September 2008
Location: Hatfield Business Park
Number of employees in building: 700
Cost: £15.8million
Scope of involvement:
+ site planning
+ obtaining planning consent
+ design and construction of a new
86,500 sq ft headquarters building

“Goodman interpreted our brief to deliver a building that meets
our requirements perfectly, in terms of our staff, our customers
and the environment.”
