I have worked with TGA on numerous occasions and have always found them to be professional and respectful as an organisation. The individuals within TGA are always willing to go the extra mile. Their approach to collaboration has ensured that we are ahead of the curve with regard to changes in Legislation and Regulations. Demonstrating skill and knowledge in every aspect of their business, from their interrogation of scheme particulars to presenting findings and providing alternative recommendations for improvements. TGA have contributed to bringing Willmott Dixon Construction more success. It is my opinion TGA are dedicated to their clients and will bring their collective expertise to the table in order to make any new ventures a success.

TGA have provided an exceptional service on DUMSCS project. TGA were involved in this BIM Level 2 scheme from the end of Stage 3 and quickly got to grips with the specific project requirements. TGA had a dedicated resource to support the design team and the site installation team. The approach to closing out clashes was very proactive and worked well, with TGA collaborating and working well with the wider design team and SRM.

Regional Building Services Manager, Sir Robert McAlpine
During the construction of the Learning and Teaching Centre (LTC) TGA were engaged to complete the Construction, design and installation information on behalf the M&E contractor. Their involvement from an early stage enabled the building model to be developed with actual manufacturers information, which provided detailed installation information. The flexible approach delivered by TGA enabled builders work holes in structural elements to be detailed very early in the programme, which had cost and programme benefits. A Level 2 BIM model was required for the project, with TGA being very proactive in developing this and guided the site team and other team members with the delivery of their respective elements. TGA helped to provide a very technically demanding building successfully, which incorporated complex MEP, Architectural and Structural co-ordination.

I have worked closely with TGA on many heritage projects. Many of these projects have been on complex ecclesiastical sites. TGA provide clear and effective advice. The delivery team are conscientious and hardworking and have always given my clients and I an excellent attentive service from concept inception to completion, and post completion to ‘fine tune’. They are positive members of the design team who are able to bring creative thinking and options to the process. TGA work well with contractors, providing reliable information, and are effective at inspecting the works as part of quality control. TGA’s experience in working on many heritage projects means they are well versed in the key challenges and issues faced by historic properties and the need for modern services.
