We have successfully delivered the mechanical and electrical infrastructure in several schools for Milton Keynes Council.
Each school has been designed to high standards and while different in their operational requirements they all excel with the use of renewable technologies which include air source heat pumps as a primary heat source; LED lighting with organic response controls; solar PV panels.

Leamington Spa Guide dogs Charity
The Guide Dogs Training School at Leamington Spa started in 1941 and today trains 220 dogs a year.
With such a high demand, training space on the site was at a premium so when attention turned to converting the draughty old garage into a dedicated training centre, ORBS didn’t hesitate to offer a solution.
Along with our supply chain partners and Willmott Dixon ORBS provided new electrical and mechanical services including lighting, fire alarm and heating. The result is a multi-use training centre we are all proud of.

Unused and unloved for over 25 years this near derelict 1940’s gym with a grade 2 listed facade has been re-purposed into teaching, office spaces and a lecture theatre for the University.
ORBS worked closely with Associated Architects and Arup Consultants to deliver the electrical & mechanical installation on a challenging site.
