Teamwork
Competition to be awarded the contract to work on this prestigious City development was tough and so we developed a proposal that would combine exceptional quality with affordable products.
We worked closely with PLP Architecture’s team to develop the specification/drawings, the leading contractor, Multiplex to navigate through the selection process and tender, and finally, joinery contractor, SJ Eastern to develop drawings and schedules for sign off and manufacture.
Together we drew up a solid project plan detailing key milestones and were successful in winning the bid thanks to our willingness to work as a strong team, our innovatively designed products and our excellent services and commitment.
