UCML aim to provide our clients with an alternative solution for utilities connections, and unravel the ever-growing complexities of the water, gas, electricity and telecoms industries.
Utilising our insight, experience and vast regulatory knowledge, UCML can identify any potential issues that may have an impact on a project commercially, technically or financially. Engaging with design teams at project inception is the ideal scenario; however, we are often instructed by in-house technical teams needing additional support at all stages of a project.
We have made use of the services offered by UCML for many years, on the development of our award winning, retirement village schemes. During this time UCML have provided an efficient, professional service, which has resulted, through their detailed knowledge, in contract savings and improved programming. Their friendly, positive approach is a real benefit and makes them a pleasure to work with.
Property Manager, Retirement Village DeveloperI can confirm that we have worked with UCML on a number of affordable housing projects over the last few years in Liverpool and Chester. They have performed consistently well in dealing with difficult service disconnection issues, keeping all members of the delivery team informed on all matters. The Company’s professional approach and eagerness to question technical and cost information provided by the statutory authorities has been an asset to the projects.
We have no hesitation in recommending them for future developments of all types.
Principal Consultant, Global Management & Technical ConsultancyThe procurement of gas, water and power is complicated and the ever changing environment proves that some companies are reluctant to take overall responsibility. UCML’s knowledge allows the early identification of problems to be able to negotiate energy infrastructure costs before contracts are placed with contractors - they ‘smooth the whole process’ during the contract. Identifying any potential issues early is vital, as energy supplier installation times are lengthy. The risks to a timely completion are substantial.
UCML were successful in lowering the original quotes from statutory suppliers quite dramatically. Our main contractors also appreciated the services provided by UCML, as the supply of gas, water and power caused me the most sleepless nights!
