Building Ireland spoke with company Contracts Manager, Jamie Moynihan to learn more about the Kerry based firm. Jamie has been part of the team for ten years now, and gave us a greater insight in to their current workload.

The development is approx. 7400sqm comprising 3 and part 2 storey teaching blocks. During 2015 & 2016 we completed an Endoscopy Extension, Radiology Development, and the previously mentioned  two-theatre extension in the Bon Secours hospital here in Tralee.

In 2015, David Doyle Electrical completed a full electrical re-wire and upgrade for Kerry Group’s Head Office  including  site services in Tralee.

The installation included an LED Energy efficient lighting upgrade for all corridor and communal areas and a high efficiency T5 Dimmable and Non-Dimmable lighting upgrade for all other areas.

Other services included; Fire Alarm, Disabled Refuges, Disabled Toilet Alarms, Intruder Alarm, CCTV, Data/Fibre/Copper Installation, Cat 6 Data installation c/w 25-year warranty and Fibre Optic Cable Links between the two main Kerry Group Communication Hubs.

As part of the installation, it was a requirement that the main server  of Kerry Group entire structure  stayed in operation  for the duration of the works (12 months) as this was operating all  of Kerry’s data infrastructure worldwide.

It was just one of many major projects the company have undertaken in recent years, having come through the economic downturn unscathed.
