Along with 11 other major infrastructure and construction companies, we have signed the Blueprint for Growth. It makes 12 recommendations to help the next UK government boost economic growth and productivity by accelerating the delivery of critical national infrastructure. Construction is a sector of strategic national importance, employs 9% of all UK workers and generates 7% of our GDP. With a visible and funded pipeline of work, it can generate wealth while delivering the buildings and infrastructure that underpin our quality of life.

Earlier this week our Managing Director Gokhan Hassan MSc MRICS, published the BESA Top 30 M&E Contractors list. Over the past 12 months, the M&E building services sector has seen many market leaders such as SES Engineering Services, Skanska, TClarke and Gratte Brothers Group increase turnover. The list has also seen several other leading businesses including Bancroft Ltd, MCS and PIP Electrics & Building Services Ltd flourish in a very competitive industry. Having interviewed some key industry figureheads Dan Williams, Gavin Body MCIBSE and John Kelly; it is clear that the construction industry is set for further growth with a clear pipeline of work for the next 4-5 years across a broad range of sectors. In a challenging economy, a focus seems to be placed on the quality of project delivery and clients understanding the true value that M&E contractors can offer.
