Design-build contracting for commercial and industrial clients. One contract, one programme, one number — and a written report every Friday whether the news is good or not.
Overruns are almost never caused by the pour or the steel. They are caused by a drawing that changed in week three and a variation nobody priced until week eleven.
We run design and construction under one contract so there is nobody to point at. Scope is frozen before mobilisation, variations are priced in writing within forty-eight hours, and the programme on the wall in our office is the same programme you are looking at.
If we are going to be late, you will hear it from us first — with the recovery plan attached.
Architect, engineer and contractor under a single contract. One party carries the design risk and the construction risk, which is the only arrangement where the programme and the price mean anything.
Fabrication and erection for warehouses, mezzanines, plant structures and multi-storey frames. Shop drawings produced in-house, so a change on site does not cost a fortnight.
Foundations, cores, slabs and hardstanding. Mix designs tested independently, results filed with the monthly valuation.
Earthworks, drainage, access roads and yards. Usually the part that quietly destroys a programme if it starts late — so we start it first.
Racking, dock levellers, offices within the shed, power and compressed air. Delivered before handover, not as a second project after it.

The contract sum is the contract sum. Variations only where you instruct a change in scope, priced in writing inside forty-eight hours and signed before work proceeds.
Progress against programme, photographs, spend to date, and the three things most likely to slip next month. One page, every week, without being asked.
Full method statements and risk assessments before mobilisation, daily toolbox talks, and an incident log open to your inspection at any hour.
If you have drawings, we price from them. If you do not, we will walk the site and produce a budget estimate with the assumptions written down so you can see exactly what is and is not in it.
Budget estimates returned within five working days. Fully priced tenders within fifteen.
