The Northern Engineering Division of engineering and services provider HE Simm Group has won a £16m contract to deliver a commercial project as part of the new regional hub in Blackpool.
The deal is with main contractor Vinci and the project is part of Muse and Blackpool Council’s £350m Talbot Gateway Regeneration Scheme.
The contract, which will see the firm deliver a full MEP installation over a 37-week programme, was awarded to the company following its ongoing delivery at the New Victoria scheme for Muse Developments.
Starting on site in November, and running through to September 2024, the company will also utilise its internal offsite manufacturing team to provide a modularised roof top plant room amongst other modular items, including risers, to the value of three quarters of a million pounds.
Managing director Greg Simm said: “We are delighted to have been awarded this contract, especially as it comes off the back of the work we are currently undertaking at New Victoria.
“It will be the largest commercial scheme delivered by the Northern Engineering Division and we are looking forward to getting going in November.”
Chief executive officer Gareth Simm said: “This contract award plays well into our continued diversification strategy, which sees more and more of our work completed in sectors including commercial, industrial and healthcare, whilst also staying true to our roots of delivering the very best MEP in the UK residential sector.”
