McLellan Works
Challenge Overview
Bywater, the developer for this property, engaged us to design, build, and manage the building’s connectivity infrastructure. However the appointment came with a number of exacting stipulations.
They were insistent that our recommendations must meet the rigorous standards of Gold WiredScore Certification and deliver their core objective to deliver fully flexible and future-proof capabilities.
Good job that we always enjoy working to a demanding brief!
The Zetta Solution
McLellan Works now boasts an additional on-net carriers, a fully distributed landlord fibre backbone, converged landlord network and guest Wi-Fi across communal spaces.
In addition the Plug and Play suites have been designed to offer total flexibility for tenants. Enterprise grade Wi-Fi is in place across all suites, with both guest and corporate SSIDs being broadcast simultaneously. Fibre is also fully distributed to each suite, enabling rapid deployment of private, dedicated fibre services to each tenant.
By the end of project the property became one of only eight buildings in Glasgow to secure Gold WiredScore Certification or above.

Zetta Connect are without doubt experts in their field and that is apparent from the off. Connectivity within multi-let office buildings remains an essential topic in commercial property but the language and requirements are at times very technical in nature. Therefore, as a property manager, it is invaluable having a consultant who is very approachable that can distil these matters into very straightforward advice that can be relayed to landlords and tenants alike – they make life much easier!
