For principal contractors, developers and facilities management companies, the electrical package can make or break a project. Electrical work runs through almost every stage of a build, from first fix to commissioning, so a reliable subcontractor keeps the whole programme on track.
We regularly work as an electrical subcontractor on commercial and industrial projects across Yorkshire and the UK. Here is what we believe a good subcontract partner should bring to your project.
Paperwork in Place Before Day One
Before anyone sets foot on site, you need confidence that your subcontractor is competent, insured and safe. That should include:
- Risk assessments and method statements (RAMS) written for the job in hand
- Industry accreditation, such as NICEIC approval and SafeContractor
- Qualified electricians holding the right industry cards for site access
- Appropriate insurance for the work being carried out
Reliable Labour and a Realistic Programme
A subcontractor is only as good as their ability to turn up with the right people at the right time. We plan our resources around your programme, raise issues early if anything changes and scale the team up or down as the project requires. We can also provide skilled labour to support your own teams.
Working Alongside Other Trades
Electrical work touches almost every other trade on site, from mechanical services and ceilings to partitions and groundworks. We attend coordination meetings, flag clashes early and keep our work in step with yours, so nobody is left waiting on anybody else.
Quality Through to Handover
Snagging and handover are where many projects lose time. We test as we go, keep records up to date throughout the job and provide a complete handover pack at the end, including certification, test results and as installed information.
For Swan Civil Engineering, we delivered the full design and electrical fit out of a new industrial workshop within a tight deadline, with NICEIC certification and a handover pack supplied on completion.
Design Input When It Helps
Many projects benefit from electrical design input at an early stage. We can work from your consultant’s design or provide our own, helping to find savings in the scheme without compromising safety, compliance or quality.
