A St Helens Structural Engineering and Construction
Consultancy
company set up 37 years ago has doubled in size in the
past year
after securing some lucrative contracts from various
blue-chip
companies.
AC
Robinson & Associates provides construction consultancy,
civil and structural engineering design and facilities
management services to various local and international
companies.
Recently
the company was appointed to head up the design and
project management of the new £25 million distribution
warehouse for AAH Pharmaceuticals in Stoke. This contract
was awarded on the back of AC Robinson’s appointment
as facilities management responsible for the AAH Pharmaceuticals
building portfolio across the UK covering 19 major sites.
Owner
Simon Robinson explains: “Our role ultimately
is to ensure our clients maximise their profits by maximising
their buildings. As a company that understands buildings
from design concept to completion, we know how to ensure
clients operations are as efficient as possible.
“Part
of this includes looking at other building issues such
as energy management and alternative power requirements
on sites. We have been very successful at implementing
new energy solutions saving clients, in many cases,
hundreds of thousands of pounds.”
AC
Robinson & Associates was set up by Clive Robinson
in Church Lane, Eccleston in 1969. One of the first
clients, which is still retained today, was Pilikington
Glass. Clive’s son Simon Robinson acquired the
practice in 2000 and the practice relocated
to the Alexandra Park site.
The
company initially focused on civil and structural design
of industrial and commercial buildings, but has since
evolved into managing entire construction projects from
design to completion.
AC Robinson and Associates also specialise in facilities
management. The company already has an established design
pedigree and other clients include Pilkington Glass,
Kuehne & Nagel, Granada & Spirit Group to name
but a few.
The
Practice has recently made two key managerial appointments
to further strengthen the team. Iain Ferguson joined
the practice as an associate, joining fellow associates
Gerald Renshaw and Les
Critchley and more recently Iain Paterson joined as
facilities manager.
Simon
Robinson is an active member of the business community
and a former director of the Chamber, with whom they
have enjoyed close links with for many years.
