[email protected] | 0113 262 0000 | www.sweco.co.uk Foreword Welcome to the NCE100 Gold Book. Inside we are recognising some fantastic civil engineering businesses. The companies inside are the most innovative, impactful and inspirational companies operating in the infrastructure sector today. We know this because the NCE100 is the most rigorous and robustly-judged business recognition scheme in civil engineering. To achieve recognition here, firms have had to present their achievements to a panel of 45 judges representing the industry’s leading clients, owner/operators stakeholder groups and change bodies. But not only that, they had to allow us to conduct a comprehensive survey of their staff. We are grateful to the almost 8,000 engineers who responded and provided us with their invaluable insight. These firms also had to answer some key questions designed to eliminate any company that is not meeting the NCE100 criteria of driving our industry forward by doing the right things, in the right way, to deliver outcomes that benefit society. Recognition comes in three ways. We have 15 award categories: five recognise firms innovating The NCE100 is in project initiation, design, delivery and operation; five more recognise firms who are making an impact with industry- the most rigorous change initiatives; and five more recognise firms who serve as inspiration to us all by delivering outcomes for society. and robustly-judged We also give special recognition to the role of the smaller business recognition scheme firms in our industry; the firms often incubating the best ideas but who do not always have the marketing clout to get in civil engineering their voices heard. We recognise these firms through our “ Trending20 – our pick of the small firms with the best stories to tell. But we begin with the top 10 – the firms who, according to the NCE100 judges, their staff and their data, really are standing out – and our ultimate winner, the NCE100 Company of the Year. I hope you find our Gold Book informative.

We have world-class expertise in architecture, design and engineering, and British companies are leading the way in sustainable construction solutions. It is also a sector with considerable growth opportunities, with the global construction market forecast to grow by over 70% by 2025. Changes in the international economy are creating new opportunities for Britain. To help boost the economic recovery, Government is doing all it can to help British businesses grow and have the aspiration, confidence and drive to compete in the global race. This includes reforming the planning system, ensuring funding is available for key infrastructure projects and supporting the housing market through key initiatives such as the Help-to-Buy Equity Loan Scheme and the Funding for Lending Scheme. The Government wants to work with industry to ensure British companies are well-placed to take advantage of these opportunities. As part of our Industrial Strategy policy, the Government is building long-term partnerships with sectors that can deliver significant growth.

    Writing Your Consultation Report: Practical Guidance

    Writing your consultation report: practical guidance The purpose of a consultation report is to show how you actively engaged with relevant groups and stakeholders in your local community, what feedback they provided on your proposal to establish a Free School, and how you intend to respond to their feedback. A typically good consultation report would normally include: 1. An executive summary highlighting the main findings of your consultation · Provide a brief, high-level summary of responses to your consultation questionnaire and any other feedback (e.g. letters, emails, meetings), outlining the main positive and negative points that emerged. 2. An outline and timeline of the consultation process · Indicate how long the consultation process ran for and provide exact dates for when different types of consultations (questionnaires, meetings) were carried out; · Describe how you disseminated your consultation materials (questionnaires, leaflets, letters inviting responses, etc.). Include extracts in the main report and enclose full copies as appendices; · Describe any consultation events (public meetings, workshops, etc.) you held. Clearly indicate the nature of the events, where they took place, who attended, and what was discussed; · Briefly list the respondents and stakeholders (e.g. local schools, Local Authorities, parents, community groups and leaders, local residents, prospective students) who took part in your consultation process. As an appendix to your report, provide a complete list of the institutions, groups, and types of individuals (within the limits of confidentiality) you consulted; · Briefly describe how you envisage the consultation to progress after the publication of your first report. 3. A summary of responses to your consultation questionnaires · Specify how many people responded in a certain way to a particular question.

    A BSRIA Guide www.bsria.co.uk Design Checks for Electrical Services A quality control framework for electrical engineers By Kevin Pennycook Supported by BG 3/2006 Design considerations Design issues Calculations Systems and equipment PREFACE Donald Leeper OBE The publication of Design Checks for Electrical Services is a welcome addition to the well received and highly acclaimed Design Checks for HVAC, published in 2002. The design guidance sheets provide information on design inputs, outputs and practical watch points for key building services design topics. The guidance given complements that in CIBSE Guide K, Electricity in Buildings, and is presented in a format that can be easily incorporated into a firm’s quality assurance procedures. From personal experience I have seen the benefit of such quality procedures. Once embedded within a process information management system, the guidance in this book will ensure consistent and high quality design information. When used for validation and verification, the design checks and procedures can also make a key contribution to a risk management strategy. The easy-to-follow layout and the breadth of content makes Design Checks for Electrical Services a key document for all building services engineers.
