“Pinnacle sought a partner rather than simply a consultancy service provider. We looked for an organisation that listened carefully to our needs and ideas and provided a choice of added value solutions.” - David Meigh, Partner Pinnacle Consulting Engineers Limited

Outcome / Client Benefits

The original feasibility cost of £20m provided by others was revised by Delta-Simons through a process of review and risk assessment, to a point whereby the revised costs allowed the development to proceed. Our innovative approach to detailed risk assessment, focusing on “fit for use” remediation enabled Delta-Simons to deliver the solution for less than £5m. This approach was accepted by the regulators, the end users and the ultimate funding partners. Delta-Simons is Tesco’s preferred environmental consultancy supplier.
