We are now in week 6 of the lockdown in the UK and all of us at the rpa:group wanted to reach to our clients, to assure you of our continued support in these challenging times. We hope we find you, your families, friends and colleagues safe and well.
We would also like to extend our gratitude and best wishes to those working across the UK and in our European neighbours in the health services and also all other essential workers on the front line throughout this unprecedented pandemic.
As we begin to see the news of the spread of coronavirus becoming more contained and health services across the UK and Europe reporting a welcome reduction in both infection and death rates it is positive to hear from our clients and the wider industry about the gathering momentum around the cautious return to construction projects. Many sites are now reopening having introduced the necessary Site Operating Procedures to keep workers safe, following the government’s clear directive that construction is permitted to continue.
We are therefore working with our clients and their contractors to develop and support their strategies for the recommencement of construction activities as well as ensure their compliance with CLC SOP v3 guidance to ensure the safe operation of these sites once they are operational. Needless to say, we are doing all we can to facilitate the reawakening of the sector, critical to the economy.
We continue to operate from our various home offices spread throughout Europe including the UK, Poland and Spain. Using technology to remain productive in our daily activities and connected with our colleagues and clients. We are therefore able to assist with any project support that either existing or new clients may have whether it’s design, architecture, project management or quantity surveying related.
And finally, we want to assure you that the wellbeing of our people and clients is of the upmost importance to us. We continue to review our plans to ensure that everyone is protected while continuing to provide the high level of service we pride ourselves on.
