One of the world’s leading engineering, architecture and
environmental consulting companies, GHD, has integrated with rail
and infrastructure consultant CollinsonDutton Ltd (CDL). CDL,
formed in 2001, has been working closely with GHD for several years
in the UK. The combination of skills will provide an enhanced
offering to clients across the globe in transportation and
associated infrastructure. Both companies will continue to grow
their presence in both the UK and Middle East through the expanded
capacity allowed by the merger.
John Dutton, who was appointed GHD Manager UK
in the transition comments, “This change offers us a heightened
opportunity to grow the business, offering CDL employees the chance
to work on larger projects worldwide. Having worked with GHD for
some time, we have integrated to provide a robust offering, focused
on continual service improvement that looks set to gain further
momentum.”
Andy Collinson, who will become GHD’s Business
Leader Rail for the Middle East and UK, said ‘The integration
brings together two strong, proven teams. We are each very excited
about the ability this gives us to further enhance the service we
provide to both existing and new clients.”
The incorporation will involve the blending of
teams in the UK, Middle East and various offices across
Australia.
John Baird, GHD General Manager Middle East and Europe added, 'This
merger further enables our strategy to develop a strong European
transport business to serve local markets, and to support the
development of our offering in the Middle East and across the globe
utilising the one GHD network. We are delighted to welcome CDL's
people to the GHD family.'
