IT was fine, but what about M&E?

Article Abstract:

Olympia and York, the company responsible for the Canary Wharf development in the Docklands area of London, England, undertook the work through a series of joint ventures between North American and UK engineering consultancies and contractors. Project manager was US concern Lehrer McGovern International. Olympia and York took a very cautious approach to building services, and this meant that there was very little innovation. However, it was prepared to be very ambitious in relation to the design of the information technology infrastructure.
