We are
extremely proud to announce our success in this year’s prestigious Celebrating
Construction 2016 Awards in Birmingham on Friday 13th May.
The win
of the night was in the ‘Heritage’ category, where our outstanding work on the
Royal Shakespeare Company’s Swan Wing restoration was acknowledged. The project
saw the restoration of the oldest part of the RSC’s theatres, with work being
carried out on both the façade and interior of the Grade II listed building. We
would like to congratulate Heritage Specialist Richard Sapcote, Contracts
Manager Rob Leonard, Site Managers Bob and Phil Tatton and Quantity Surveyor
Dan Manley on this fantastic achievement.
Alongside
this award, we also received Highly Commended in the ‘Project of the Year’
category, for the Birmingham Institute of Forest Research (BIFoR) project. As
only the third project of its kind globally, it has deservedly attracted
national and international media attention. We weaved our way throughout the
woodland in Staffordshire to carry out extensive works setting up the site
including construction of access roads, a Co2 storage compound and installation
of 1,000 meters of pipework throughout the forest for the distribution of the
Co2. In addition, we also achieved our now infamous helicopter delivery method
for installation of over 100 25m high masts. The success of this project is
thanks to a great deal of people and hard work - Project Manager Dave Disney,
Quantity Surveyor Nigel Meehan, Site Managers Sean Hall, Paul Cheese, Paul
Roberts, Stan Tweede, Scott Orton and Chris Moore, M&E Manager Neil Cappell
and Senior Contracts Manager Phil Wrixon.
This is
the second acknowledgement the BIFoR project has received, with it also being
named winner of the ‘Environmental Award’ last year at the Building Safety
Group Awards. As well as this amazing achievement, Dave Disney has also been
shortlisted for the Construction Manager of the Year Awards for his performance
on BIFoR, and we wish him the best of luck for the rest of the process.
Many
congratulations to all involved in these award winning projects!
