The fact that we have a healthy forward order book, with many long term PFI contracts secured, gives our business stability, which we can build on to ensure our customers receive the very highest standards in quality of delivery. These are exciting times for the business and I am looking forward to working with the existing team and building on Powerminster’s strengths as a first class provider of services for both public and private sector customers.”
