Civil Engineering Consultancy
Ref.GF023
Location Vancouver, BC, Canada
Asking Price £ 575,000
Established in 1984 and under the stewardship of the current Owners throughout this period, this business, a Civil Engineering practice,
undertakes assignments throughout the Greater Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada.
The business has widespread experience and expertise in all aspects of municipal and industrial civil engineering and has been developed
specifically to meet all of the requirements of Clients, Architects, Surveyors and other professionals involved in the construction process.
Involved in new build, repairs, expansion, investigation and studies, this business has worked on projects for major clients including all levels of government, port authorities and operators, municipalities and industry, being primarily employed on contracts with values ranging from
£10,000 to £1m generally speaking.
Priding itself very much in offering a hands-on approach from the senior principals within the business in active, operational, as well as
supervisory roles, this business is well known within its profession for expert and creative solutions to challenging engineering problems –
and particularly
where off the shelf solutions will rarely suffice. Frequently the business is involved at the concept stages of a project so as to provide initial
design advice at the feasibility stage, ensuring that the most economical solutions are considered. As a result the business has a very strong
reputation throughout the sector – amongst its clients which it works – a reputation based on project delivery, meeting the time scales
and financial targets that have been set and perhaps most importantly the dependability of its work. Not surprisingly, the vast majority
of its projects come from Client referral and repeat business.
This is a very well established business that is currently experiencing significant growth as a result of the considerable construction activity
across its customer base and in the Vancouver area in general – a trend that is set to continue for many years to come due to Canada’s vast
natural resources, the Regional Gateway Transportation initiative and the Vancouver/Whistler 2010 Olympic Games among other things.
In fact British Columbia currently has record major projects permits of $160 Billion CDN currently outstanding.
With fee income of over £1,000,000 for the financial year ending 2008 generating healthy operating profits, an excellent, longstanding
reputation and a Client list ripe for future development this represents an excellent opportunity for an existing engineering practice looking
to increase their presence or establish themselves in the Canadian market or as an excellent add on to a practice currently specializing in other engineering sectors. |
