public sector

Drawing on our expertise and experience of working with both government and built environment professionals, we achieve the best in public building projects.  From restoration of cultural and heritage buildings to new civic offices, and from prisons to police stations, there is clear evidence that good public buildings have an impact on improving quality of life and creating a sense of community.

• Our core skills lie in complex, urban sites and occupied refurbishment.
• Over 80% of our work is procured through the strategic alliances, frameworks and partnering.  We are skilled at working with different funding organisations.
• Excellent project delivery starts with the right procurement approach. A collaborative approach, with early contractor involvement, helps create the best solutions, cut out waste and increase certainty.
• Our focus on operational excellence is delivering great results for our customers and the teams we work with.  We understand public procurement, gateway processes and how to deliver real value for customers and users.
• We invest resources at the earliest stages of a project’s life in order to improve a building’s efficiency and reduce running costs significantly over decades of a building’s use.
• Our special skills support customers restoring listed buildings and ancient monuments.  Through our experiences and knowledge, combined with our excellent supplier relationships, we deliver the highest standards, control costs and bring creative solutions to give these important buildings a new lease of life.
• Our commitment to better public buildings is a part of our culture.  From the start, it influences the entire process. And we never let it drop out of the equation.
