August 2016

Last month, Amanda Burlingham, Head of Business Support, picked up LPC’s ninth consecutive Gold Award at the RoSPA ceremony. The awards evening was a chance for the team to enjoy the acknowledgement from industry peers of our continuing dedication to provide health and safety as a priority in everything we do. Here is Amanda accepting the award from Michael D Parker CBE, the Chairman of RoSPA.

The LPC team also worked on the design of a complex trenchless solution, for the installation of power and fibre cables beneath the River Piddle in Dorset.  The purpose of this assignment was to connect a wind and solar park to the grid, whilst crossing an environmentally sensitive wetland and river bed.  Not to be put off, LPC has both the experience and know how to engineer a solution. Having provided a successful outcome for this particular client, the genius behind the project, LPC’s Business System’s Manager John Wylie, is happy to offer ideas to help with future design requirements for both existing and new clients.

Meanwhile, the rest of the team were busy working on upgrading the UK Power Networks’ infrastructure.

Paul Phillips, LPC’s Commercial Director said… “we have been a key part of UKPN’s (previously EDF Energy) supply chain and we are delighted to be able to support them in a number of key project areas including LV link box upgrades, HV works and defence projects. Since the spring we have increased our resource commitments by 35% to UKPN and this is good news for LPC and great news for our client.’’   When it comes to providing a reliable, safe service it’s clear that LPC remains the first choice for many organisations who need a quick response from a company they can trust.
