Background
A resort in Bintan, Indonesia experienced a major fire disaster caused by a fire in their transformer room. Some of the machinery suffered damage beyond repair, but the effects such as soot damage had spread to more than 70 guest rooms in the resort through the duct system.
Solutions Provided
DRS led this project from the initial assessment to complete restoration. While most of the restoration equipment was brought in from Singapore, we worked with our local partners for other materials and supplies required for the project. Our scope included the complete soot decontamination of all guest rooms inclusive of contents, the thorough cleaning of the duct system and the replacement of the transformer units.
Impact
For hotels, it is vital to return to business-as-usual at the soonest as there is a huge cost for not operating the rooms. DRS managed to restore the resort within a month, which helped minimize the commercial and reputational risk for the client.
