Additional Details.    

• Hewlett’s location and flexibility allowed resource to be called in early during the Christmas possession taking advantage of gains made during the P’way removal works.

• The in depth experience of the Hewlett management team on-site allowed problems and issues to be dealt with immediately as the work hit snags in the installation process.

• Hewlett’s large in-house fleet of plant, excavators and supplementary plant, backed up by on call PTS fitters, ensured the right plant was available and was used successfully to complete the works.

• Reliability of an in-house directly employed PTS workforce ensured that labour was reliable and worked to the highest standards of safety and quality on a tight challenging programme.
