Hi there,
Wow, its been a busy day for me and a busy topic day. Ive just got in from an emergency job, and therefore have just read the days posts, and emails.
I may not answer all questions on here, but that is obvioualy my choice.
With regard to health and safety, and site specific,if you visit a sample of say GW,or DWH or Bovis, Taylor Woodrow, or any of the major housebuilders,you will find that most of the sites are the same, same layout, build pattern, trraffic management, fire plans, accident reporting procedures, etc.
If you choose to get bogged down in H and S then it will do that bog you down, and that is why the internet and more and more health and safety companies are making good money advising any and every business in the UK.
I totally agree that Risk Assessments, and health and safety docs, need to be site specific.
I also agree that many of the larger developers, use Health and Safety questionnaires, to assess the suitability of potential suppliers.
In fact many of the developers now, are preparing the risk assessments for the trades,and you are being asled to adopt them.
I have had in excess of 50 enquires across a number of boards.
What are we offering, i have already provided introductory details on that, however we can provide, exactly what the client needs,
IE
A full service, ie for the build clean business start up, marketing, tender response, operations, and management, off site face to face consultancy, and On Site consultancy,also included being 12 months phone support.
Are our services expensive??
If in year one of business you have say five active sites, running at a slow build rate then you would expect to complete 500 plots at an average price per plot then you may achieve say £250,000 turnover, and if someone needed the most complete consultancy package, and onsite consultancy, then the cost would represent less than 1% of your turnover.
And thats it, because once you are armed with THE KNOWLEDGE, then you dont need ongoing consultancy, unless you really cant do without seeing me.
Therefore the services that we offer are VALUE FOR MONEY.
How much are our Services? well that is contained in the information provided to potential clients.
Am i going to have enough time? I am looking to provide consultancy, I know how many clients I can handle in a twelve month period, and that will be managed striclty.
We only deliver a quality service, and never promise what we cant do.
Unlike every other trade ON SITE, we communicate with site, and turn up and work when we say we are going to.
TO ME THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT POINTS.
anyway, i hope that i have responded to some of the points raised today.
The United Kingdom, is currently building and planning to build thousands of homes, there is more than enough work for every person that wishes to get into this business..
