Engineering services for laboratory relocations

Relocating a laboratory is a complex, high-risk activity that demands careful planning, technical expertise, and reliable execution. Calibrio provides specialist engineering services for laboratory relocations, helping you move critical equipment and facilities safely, efficiently, and in full support of your quality and compliance requirements.

We work alongside your project, quality, and facilities teams to minimise downtime, protect valuable assets, and ensure your laboratory is fully operational at its new location.

We provide structured decommissioning and recommissioning services for laboratory and process equipment, ensuring assets are handled correctly throughout the relocation.

Typical activities include:

• Safe shutdown and isolation of equipment
• Disconnection from utilities (electrical, gases, water, data)
• Support for packing, transport, and positioning
• Reconnection and start-up at the new location
• Functional checks to confirm correct operation
   

All work is carried out with safety, equipment integrity, and traceability in mind.

Calibrio’s lab readiness service is designed to ensure that laboratories are suitable and ready for the upcoming equipment relocation and commissioning. 

It involves desk and site-based assessments of clients’ critical equipment, their installation requirements, the current and new site infrastructure, utilities and suitability of the lab space.  

This helps ensure that labs are suitably equipped, prepared and capable of operating, reducing downtime and allowing new and relocated labs return to operation quickly and compliantly. 

• Facilitate smooth and successful installation process.

• Minimize downtime and disruptions of laboratory, equipment and services.

• Reduce the need for remedial works.

• Reduce risk of OEM’s and specialists being unable to commission equipment. 

• Support regulatory compliance.

Especially in regulated environments, calibration and temperature mapping are Following relocation, equipment and controlled environments must be verified before use. Calibrio supports this with calibration and temperature mapping services to help restore confidence in your measurements and storage conditions.

Services may include:

• Calibration of laboratory instruments and sensors
• Verification of critical measurement parameters
• Temperature mapping of cold rooms, incubators, fridges, freezers, and stability storage
• Clear documentation suitable for audit and quality review
   

Scopes are tailored to your internal SOPs and regulatory expectations.

Laboratory moves often identify the need for equipment modifications or site-specific remedial work. Calibrio provides practical engineering support to resolve issues efficiently.This can include:

• Minor mechanical or electrical modifications
• Utility adjustments and equipment re-configuration
• Remedial works identified during recommissioning or qualification activities
• Support to close gaps prior to operational release
