case study
the challenge:
a sparecrib client required long-term accommodation for a five-person engineering team working on a project in lostock green from february for eight months. the team operated on a monday-to-friday basis, travelling home at weekends, and needed comfortable, fully serviced accommodation that could provide consistency and convenience throughout the duration of the project.
the sparecrib solution:
we sourced three high-quality, fully serviced properties within easy reach of the project site, ensuring each team member had the comfort and space they needed during the working week. for the core team, we secured the same properties every week, giving them a reliable base to return to and a true sense of home-from-home familiarity.
our ongoing coordination ensured seamless weekly check-ins and check-outs, while our 24/7 support was always available for any last-minute adjustments or requests.
the result:
for the full eight-month duration, the client's engineering team enjoyed consistent, secure, and comfortable accommodation that made their time on-site easier and more efficient. by maintaining the same properties each week, sparecrib delivered the stability and peace of mind that helped the team stay focused on their work — not their logistics.
week after week, we provide the consistency that keeps your projects moving smoothly.
