In fact, Tomkins Commercial &
Industrial Builders considers its
relationship with its clients as one of
its most important priorities. It has also
used this philosophy to great success
with its suppliers and sub-contractors.
Holcim has had Tomkins as a customer
for several decades and a number of
sub-contractors have enjoyed rapid
growth because of the work allotted to
them by Tomkins.
Mike Tomkins has established a
practice of personally mentoring
several sub-contractors and meets
with them once a month to provide
appreciation for a successful outcome
to the DHL Gateway facility project.
“From the outset, I believe both parties
invested heavily in the relationship
between the two organisations, with
a collaborative and positive working
relationship between the BAC project
team and the entire Tomkins onsite
crew.
“TheexperiencewithTomkinshasbeen
one of responsiveness in resolving our
issues and delivering a building to BAC’s
high standards and tight timeframes in
what was a very difficult project.”
