Services

ODA’s services are designed to support every stage of a project, from early feasibility and design through to delivery and ongoing optimisation. Combining independent consultancy with specialist engineering expertise, we help clients make informed decisions, reduce risk and deliver efficient, compliant and practical refrigeration, HVAC and M&E solutions.

# 1

Consultancy and Strategy

Feasibility Studies & Options Appraisals

Before committing to major investment, it’s essential to understand what different options mean in practice. Our feasibility studies and options appraisals provide independent assessment of refrigeration strategies, system upgrades and refrigerant choices.

We evaluate performance, safety, compliance and long-term impact, helping clients understand risks and make informed decisions. This ensures the most practical and effective solution is identified before progressing to detailed design or procurement.

Cost Management

Effective cost management is about control, clarity and confidence throughout the lifecycle of a project. We support clients from early planning through to final account, ensuring costs are understood, managed and optimised at every stage.

Through structured cost studies, data analysis and ongoing validation during design, we provide early visibility and reduce financial risk. Our approach supports informed decision-making, helping projects stay aligned with both technical and commercial objectives.

Auditing & Independent Reviews

Independent auditing and technical reviews provide assurance at every stage of a project. We assess systems, design proposals and delivery to identify risks, verify performance and ensure alignment with operational and regulatory requirements.

Our reviews include design verification, ensuring solutions are technically sound, compliant and fit for purpose. With clear, objective insight, we help clients make confident decisions, improve outcomes and ensure systems perform as intended.

Regulation and Compliance

Navigating refrigeration regulations can be complex, with evolving requirements across safety, environmental and pressure systems. We provide clear, practical advice to help clients understand and meet their obligations with confidence.

From F-Gas legislation to pressure systems and safety standards, we build compliance into the design from the outset. This reduces risk, avoids delays and ensures systems are robust, compliant and future-ready.

Design & Engineering

Design Drawings

Clear, construction-ready design drawings are essential to successful project delivery. Our drawings and models bridge the gap between concept and construction, communicating design intent and resolving constraints before work begins on site.

Through integrated 2D layouts and 3D BIM modelling, we coordinate systems across disciplines, reducing clashes and avoiding costly changes. This ensures designs are practical, buildable and give all stakeholders confidence in the outcome.

Integrated Mechanical, Electrical & Refrigeratioin Solutions

Delivering fully integrated mechanical, electrical and refrigeration systems is essential to complex projects. We provide coordinated design and consultancy across all disciplines, ensuring systems work seamlessly together from concept through to delivery.

By taking a joined-up approach, we reduce coordination risks, avoid clashes and improve overall performance. Clients benefit from a single, consistent design strategy, simplifying delivery and supporting reliable long-term operation.

# 3

Delivery & Site Support

Tendering

Selecting the right contractor is a critical stage in any project. We manage the tendering process to ensure contractors are pricing against a fully developed, coordinated design, enabling clear comparisons and confident decision-making.

From preparing tender documentation to managing queries and evaluating submissions, we provide a structured and transparent approach. This reduces procurement risk and supports the appointment of the right delivery partner.

Site Services

Our site services provide practical, on-the-ground support to ensure systems are installed, operated and maintained effectively. We support clients throughout delivery and operation, offering surveys, inspections and project management.

We also provide asset management and F-Gas support, helping maintain compliance and system performance over time. Our hands-on approach helps identify issues early, reduce risk and support reliable long-term operation.

# 4

Ongoing Performance & Support

Technical Support

Our technical support services provide ongoing engineering expertise to support system performance, optimisation and long-term strategy. We work with clients across design, delivery and operation, offering specialist input where it’s needed most.

This includes controls and BMS integration, commissioning support and documentation, specification writing and new product reviews, alongside heat recovery strategies, model store design and net zero roadmaps. Through post-completion reviews and performance monitoring, we help ensure systems operate efficiently and continue to deliver value over time.
