Innovation

Collaboration

We focus on working alongside our customer base and partners and ensure our teams are encouraged and equipped to collaborate, innovate and make a difference with new ideas and improvements.

Using the expertise and experience of specialists across the sector, the capabilities across our business, and the opportunity to work closely with clients, partners, suppliers and wider stakeholders. We focus on delivering more through integrated solutions.

Digital Engineering

Our digital technology focus supports information sharing and innovation, enabling us to be more efficient, data-driven and nimble. With digital engineering providing exciting opportunities to advance the way projects are designed and delivered, our people are at the forefront of integrating the latest technology on our projects.

This includes technology like GPS machine guidance control and the advanced use of machine telematics to support remote management and efficient machine operation.

Safety Focused Innovation

We focus on making tasks safer or simpler and providing more value by evaluating new technical solutions, methods and processes. We also embed safety into all activities safeguarding the people who will operate and work alongside our equipment. This has included becoming the first UK plant hirer to mandate inclinometers on all dump trucks to reduce the risk relating to skip turnovers.

Managing the People-Plant Interface

From technology like the FHOSS Red Zone safety system or Safety Shields People Detection to proximity sensors and radar braking we are constantly assessing the technology available and trialling it to help minimise the risk of the people-plant interface.

Sustainability Focused Innovation

As a leading partner in the Supply chain sustainability school, we have concentrating on introducing technology which can improve equipment efficiency and reduce emissions. This has included working collaboratively with clients to explore and analyse machine performance data enabling utilising our bespoke telematics program.

This helps us to identify opportunities for improving site and operator performance. We are then able to provide additional training through the use of plant simulators to develop and reward positive behaviour leading to better productivity and a lower carbon cost for the project.
