Relocation of prisoners.

Harrow Green undertook a tightly organised move of prison personnel to a new high security facility at HMP Shotts, Lanarkshire.

The security-cleared Harrow Green team worked with prison staff within a carefully orchestrated move plan to transfer 250 long-term prisoners from the old facility on the site, as well as some 50 support and operational staff.  Minimum disruption, smooth transfer and pinpoint timing were essential elements of the meticulous planning and the managed relocation of prisoners, material and effects.

“We operated to a strict timetable,” said Aidan Robertson, Project Manager for Harrow Green. “Colour co-ordination to locate and differentiate prisoner belongings from staff equipment and medical centre material, for example, played an important part in a swift and accurate operation.”

Harrow Green provided a crate management service and carried out the full relocation of furniture and equipment.
