Faithful+Gould delivered workplace fit out and asset enhancement works to Manulife Tower in Singapore

Faithful+Gould, a member of the SNC-Lavalin Group, successfully project managed a multi-faceted base building upgrade and office fit out for Manulife Singapore, a leading global financial services group with over 600 employees and 1,000 agents locally. Delivered by an integrated team comprising project managers and sustainability consultants, the project was among one of the largest Corporate Real Estate projects that Faithful+Gould has carried out in Singapore.

The 28-storey Manulife Tower, previously known as the PWC building, occupies a prime location in the Central Business District of Singapore. Manulife, through its real estate business arm, acquired the property in 2017 and embarked on a programme to refresh and rebrand the property and improve the building's operational efficiency with the ultimate aim of increasing its market value and rental yield.

In line with the business' expansion plan, the tower was also identified as the new headquarters and main Customer Service Centre for Manulife Singapore. In the design for their new office, the Activity Based Working concept was adopted to increase collaboration and to inspire creativity and innovation in the business. As a new property under Manulife's real estate portfolio and as its main headquarters in Singapore, achieving Green Mark accreditation for the office fit out and the building upgrades were mandatory requirements set out by Manulife.
