Allied Infrastructure – East Midlands Airport Runway works

Another huge thanks to everyone involved in the final changeover of ACOP01. A project that could have gone awry and caused real problems has, due to meticulous planning and unstinting efforts from many quarters, caused hardly a ripple. Well done everybody!

Just emailing to say that Horea Lea and MAG have come back and congratulated you on a brilliant survey on the BAM north gate survey. The report was excellent and has been recognised by all parties.

Pit and Duct Survey Manchester Airport

A massive congratulations to all involved with the successful isolation and diversion works of ACOP01 yesterday. This was a massive undertaking which involved months of planning, complex isolations, shutdown works, and a very high risk operation to maintain services to the critical C200 IT service room.

Just a short note to thank you for your continued efforts across the Defence Estate for VINCI and to congratulate you on your successful Supplier Award nomination and shortlisting. Being selected in this way in testament to the service you are providing and the way we work together.

It’s a great achievement and opens the door to the vital new works, and also allows the removal of the existing generator and tank in the East service yard. The existing ACOP was in poor condition so already we have reduced risk to the airport. Thanks so much to all involved.
