  • Tussell Clients Receive Bespoke Research on Companies of Interest - Sign up for a Free Trial to find out More
    Strategic Suppliers 2018 in Review Want to receive more market updates on the most important suppliers to government? Tussell clients receive bespoke research on companies of interest - sign up for a free trial to find out more: Data as at: 05 February 2019 Strategic Suppliers are defined by the Cabinet O!ce as: "Those suppliers with contracts across a number of Departments whose revenue from Government according to Government data exceeds £100m per annum and/or who are deemed significant suppliers to Government in their sector." For more information, see this information from the Crown Commerical Service and the Cabinet O!ce: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/strategic-suppliers This analysis includes any subsidiaries, a!lliates and joint ventures of the companies mentioned. A list of these entitites is available on request. This data is derived from public sector information (a) licensed for use by the UK Government under the Open Government Licence v3.0 and/or (b) from the EU Tenders Electronic Daily website licenced for re-use by the European Commission. This information remains the copyright of the UK Government and European Commission respectively. Strategic Suppliers - Overview The Cabinet O!ce designates 30 companies as 'Strategic Suppliers' to Government. These firms are deemed so important to the delivery of essential public services that the Government's relationship with them is managed centrally by 'Crown Representatives'. 2018 was a turbulent year for some Strategic Suppliers. Starting with the collapse of Carillion in the beginning of the year and continuing with mounting stock market pressure on several others. This culminated with the re-capitalisation of Interserve on February 5th 2019.

  • Strategic Suppliers to the UK Government
    Strategic Suppliers to the UK Government 2018/19 Update September 2019 Trusted insight on government contracts and spend Tussell Strategic Suppliers Update September 2019 Public procurement is a market worth 10% of UK GDP, making the government the largest and most influential customer in the country. The Spending Round in early September 2019 announced measures that will actually increase the size of public spending as a proportion of GDP for the first time since 2010. With both main parties talking up investment in infrastructure and an end to austerity this looks set to continue into 2020 and beyond. Despite this market potential, the last two years have been a turbulent time to be a major supplier to government. From the collapse of Carillion to a number of high-profile IT contract failures, many questions have been raised over the model of outsourcing and large contractors have often been in the news for all the wrong reasons. In a climate of public controversy, media scrutiny and investor scepticism about suppliers to government, it is easy to lose sight of the facts. Without them, it is impossible for firms to navigate a shifting market, for government to monitor value for money, or for the media to scrutinise public spending. That is why we think it’s more important than ever to monitor the Strategic Suppliers*: the 34 firms deemed so vital to the functioning of public services that the Cabinet Office centrally manages the government’s relationship with them. This report is the latest in our series monitoring government spend with the Strategic Suppliers.

  • Design Checks for Electrical Services
    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. Donald Leeper OBE President, CIBSE 2005-06 Consultant, Zisman Bowyer and Partners LLP DESIGN CHECKS FOR ELECTRICAL SERVICES © BSRIA BG 3/2006 Design considerations Design issues Calculations Systems and equipment ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS BSRIA would like to thank the following sponsors for their contributions to this application guide: Griffiths and Armour Professional Risk hurleypalmerflatt Atkins Consultants Limited Mott MacDonald Limited Faber Maunsell EMCOR Group (UK) plc Bovis Lend Lease Limited The project was undertaken under the guidance of an industry steering group.

  • Atkins Technical Journal 9
    Technical Journal 09 Papers 135 - 149 Welcome to the ninth edition of the Atkins Technical Journal which features papers covering a wide range of technologies but with many common themes. A great example of this comes from our asset management work where our Highways and Transportation business is leading the way in advising clients on maintaining availability of highway networks, while the paper on Skynet 5 shows we are doing the same in our Defence, Aerospace and Communications business for satellites. Innovation and thought leadership is evident in all the papers; we have transferred learning from our Aerospace teams to our Bridge teams to produce Fibre Reinforced Polymer bridge prototypes and we have led the global sustainability debate in diverse areas such as the implementation of electric vehicles, environmentally acceptable waste disposal techniques and biomass combined heat and power technologies. We are constantly extending and improving current industry practices across all that we do, informing the next generation of codes of practice. The papers here present examples from such diverse areas as the treatment of water run-off from highways to the fatigue of stranded cables under vibration. I hope you enjoy the selection of technical papers included in this edition. This ninth Journal, and all previous editions, are available on our external website. We have introduced an email subscription alert service and if you wish to fnd out more, please visit: www.atkinsglobal.com/en/about-us/our-publications/technical-journals; Chris Hendy Network Chair for Bridge Engineering Chair of H&T Technical Leaders’ Group Atkins Technical Journal 9 Papers 135 - 149 Drainage 135 Adapting assessment of road drainage to the Water Framework Directive 05 136 Tram drainage 15 Environment & Sustainability 137 Winter Haven Chain of Lakes: conservation and restoration targets for sustainable and innovative watershed planning 25 138 Landflls vs.
