Our role

Responsible for procuring the full design team including Architect, Façade Engineer, Fire Engineer, Cost Consultant, Structural Engineer, Clerk of Works and Principal Designer. Works commenced in March 2022 and completed in October 2024. The scheme was procured on a design and build basis but with the detailed design developed in conjunction with the full design team with weekly site inspections undertaken throughout the project recording the detailing and quality of the works.

A number of variations arose during the project. BWP prepared several BSF variation submissions liaising with Homes England in securing additional funding. All works completed were eligible for BSF funding. The project remained on programme and within budget. The nature of the works meant that all apartments needed to be decanted. BWP managed the decant process liaising closely with leaseholders and occupiers of the building.

Client Feedback

” We have worked with BWP for several years, successfully delivering both large and small projects. A recent example is the Bridge Square project in Lancaster, where BWP expertly managed the replacement of combustible cladding and waterproofing of deck walkways. BWP handled the project with professionalism and skill, ensuring effective collaboration between contractors and sub-contractors. Their communication and precise project management, especially in managing the budget, were crucial to the project’s success. I highly recommend BWP for any project. ”

“Speedy Hire are delighted with the service provided by BWP.  They consistently achieve very advantageous settlements as and when we undertake a Depot closure or relocation. Not only are these secured below expenditure expectations, but BWP also manage the process in a very smooth, professional, thorough and approachable manner throughout.  Minute attention to detail is combined with a commercial and pragmatic approach, and we have total trust in the work carried out on our behalf.

BWP also take care of our contract administration and project management requirements and work closely with our internal property team to ensure that projects are delivered on time and on budget despite difficult projects with tight time constraints.”

“We have had the pleasure of working with BWP for several years, and they have played a key role in the development and success of our company, Swim. Most recently, BWP expertly managed the full project for our new swim centre at the Xscape Castleford leisure park. As always, their attention to detail and communication were exceptional, and this particular site presented unique challenges, given the presence of several high-profile retailers and leisure operators within the Xscape centre. Despite these challenges, BWP worked diligently to ensure seamless communication between all contractors and the centre management team. This included managing the delivery of high-value items, coordinating the movement of equipment through the main mall connections, and overseeing night work for essential utilities and services. Additionally, BWP’s control of the budget was exemplary, and the project was completed under the original tendered cost. We highly value our ongoing partnership with BWP and look forward to continuing to work together in the future. ”

“BWP were appointed by Plumlife Management to undertake Project Management works for large scale complex external works at Fairhaven Court in September 2023. They have a track record of working on large scale major works projects, so were the ideal partner for this works programme. As well as providing the surveys and contract administration functions, they also attended Resident Association and Full Resident Meetings at no further charge which was welcome and also provided their expertise which was invaluable at these meetings, as residents as many questions to answer. They have always been proactive in their management of this project and organising what is required to complete the works on me. On this basis I can recommend their future services to the company.”

“From the start of the project the team at BWP were clear and concise in the way they managed the project. This included completing the design phase and then managing the tender process as well as delivering the project from start to finish. All stages were managed exceptionally with the team at BWP always being available to answer questions or queries to support in resolving anything that came up during the project. BWP supported in managing the cashflow and staging of the payments which also helped to ensure we were delivering both financially and operationally. I would recommend BWP to support in any project management works.”
