Intelligent engineering for better
Driven by our passion for engineering excellence and inspired by the freedom to challenge and think differently, we provide intelligent, cost-effective designs for energy transportation, storage and distribution systems.
Drawing on our specialist knowledge and deep understanding of regional intricacies, coupled with incisive questioning, we help our clients to define their real needs. We then combine the appropriate expertise from our network of world class specialists to deliver an outcome that goes beyond the brief, adding value and truly making a difference.
What sets us apart?
As well as having vast technical knowledge and experience it is our people and our approach that really sets us apart.
We are entirely independent, founded and run by engineers. We all share a passion for great engineering, valuing intelligent engineering above all else. We take pride in providing solutions that are tailored to our clients needs rather than adopting an ‘off-the-shelf’ approach.
We have developed a series of principles that guide everything that we do. These are not simply a list of arbitrary corporate values but instead are five statements that are ingrained in every aspect of our work.
Our principles
Uncompromised
understanding
Uncompromised understanding
This first principle is vital in ensuring we identify the real needs of a client and establish the goals of a project. How can we possibly begin to develop a solution without fully understanding the challenge?
We are continually learning and will never assume we know everything. We listen to our clients and work closely with them to identify the key drivers that make a project successful. We will ask questions until we are satisfied we have a complete understanding, with the specialist knowledge to know exactly what to ask.
- We work closely with the client to challenge the brief in order to understand the underlying needs and objectives of a project
- We have a global outlook and a deep understanding of regional intricacies
- We believe that real understanding is more than knowledge alone
Freedom to
be different
