Doing the Double!
Date: September 2024
Operating for 25 years, Premier Guarantee are now the second largest warranty provider in the UK, acquired by HSB and ultimately owned by Munich Re. Their National Excellence Awards programme aims to seek out the best sites from across the UK by regularly and thoroughly assessing their performance to ensure the highest standards are being met across a multitude of indices including: Site Tidiness / Workmanship / Health & Safety / Cooperation (Site & Overall). Upon achieving an average of 4.6 for three consecutive months, an Area manager conducts an impromptu visit for verification and ultimately confirmation of the award.
These monthly awards are recognition of continually, consistent good site work and are a record of a site being in the top 10% of Premier Guarantee sites nationally.
The Montpelier team, who are delivering 28 affordable new homes on their roadside site in Whitstable were given high praise by Ged Duffy who presented the award on behalf of Premier Guarantee for winning their second award within a matter of months stating; "this is a clear reflection of an incredibly well-managed and tidy site, with a clear focus on safety and the wellbeing of the entire workforce. The new homes are being delivered to an exceptionally high standard in such a prominent location, ultimately creating a very positive image for construction."
Prior to presenting their second award, the team at Ozengell Place Ramsgate were visited and presented with their award too, again as clear reflection of a high-quality scheme and well-managed site, with the award presented to Project Manager Simon Ward. This scheme delivers essential affordable new homes to the region; a mix of 15 apartments and 23 houses and all progressing well for completion later this year.
Ged concluded by stating: "It is incredibly rare to achieve two within a six month period and a double on one of those sites as well. This is a remarkable achievement and clear indication of how well Jenner sites are run across the board and not just individually, and therefore this is credit to the entire management team."
