Challenges and Solutions

Project Manager Civil Engineer Msc Bülent Canik commented on the project.

“The biggest challenge encountered during the project was process management. In the first phase, disruptions in the work schedule made the progress of the project difficult. However, these difficulties were overcome with additional subcontractor reinforcements and strict schedule monitoring. In this way, the problems encountered in process management were effectively resolved and the project was completed on time.”

Innovative Approaches

One of the notable innovations in the project was the implementation of NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) and autopot systems in the office space. These are closed-loop systems for growing plants inside the office and have played an important role in creating sustainable offices. These technologies allow for the live cultivation of especially matriarchal plant seeds. At the same time, they provide an opportunity for employees to experiment by utilizing these specially grown products in the kitchen.

Achievements and Learnings

Generating appropriate and immediate solutions to the problems encountered in the project stood out as one of the most successful aspects of the project. In this way, every challenge was overcome by the project team's quick and effective solution suggestions. In addition, the principles of NFT and autopot systems were learned and a life-size wind turbine model was built during the project. These innovations increased the team's knowledge on sustainability and innovative technologies.
