Client testimonials

"In their role as Contractor's designer for the project, Skanska's design business provided invaluable support in a range of disciplines. They integrated fully with the construction team and were project focussed, which meant the delivery of this immense and challenging project was ensured."
James Richardson, Project Director CTRL 230 Stratford Box.

"Our in-house design business provided structural engineering solutions for two new schools in Bexley, Kent. Their input into the design and construction process was both proactive and very effective. The project was faced with various constraints and late changes. In this regard, both design and on-site interfaces were handled professionally and efficiently."
Ben Tanner, Operations Manager, Bexley PFI Schools Scheme.

"Skanska's in-house design business has brought to the DCMF Custodial programme a lateral approach to the various projects as a whole, in both their thinking and involvement with the team in the development solutions. This has given rise to them being involved in the development of many innovations, over a number of projects, to the benefit of the project as a whole."
Brian Parke, Pre-Construction Director.

"Alan Wills and his team have been instrumental in developing a robust noise and vibration monitoring protocol, and the teams advice on extensive mitigation measures far exceed anything that Skanska has undertaken on its other hospital schemes, and reflect the complex nature of both sites.  They will ensure that the patient environment is not compromised whilst enabling the major construction works to continue without interruption."
Ian Dodds, Deputy Project Director, Barts & The London New Hospitals Programme.

"The design team provided the expertise to investigate various third party 3D design models for the whole of the superstruture at Moor House. The use of the Navisworks system allowed the overlaying of models designed in various packages, inlcuding X-steel and Catia, by the steelwork and cladding specialists. This provided a preventative measure which caught all the physical clashes off-site. Its use in areas of complex geometry with interfacing trades is a priceless management tool."
Matthew Cova, Project Director, Moor House.

"The involvement of Skanska's in-house design team on 30 St Mary Axe was invaluable to us in ensuring that the specialist sub-contractors complied with the tight installation tolerances which were specified by the design team. On-site, they employed sophisticated monitoring techniques to ensure the outer diagrid fitted together within 1mm of its design, and they also monitored the deflections as the building was constructed." 
Gary Clifford, Project Director, 30 St Mary Axe.

"Skanska's differentiator is the way we do business, and our design business' successful integration into the @One Alliance, with Skanska's civil engineering team and Anglian Water, highlights their culture of collaborative working and proven track record in the Water Industry."
Colin Nicol, Senior Contracts Manager, Anglian Water Framework.
