A Birmingham construction consultancy has moved into new city centre premises


The Construction Consultants, a construction consultancy, has moved into new premises in Birmingham city centre. 

The company has worked with well-known brands such as Travelodge, Subway and Starbucks. It has recently new clients over the past 12 months across residential, student accommodation, commercial/leisure, retail and industrial sectors.
 
TCC’s previous headquarters were in Grosvenor House, St Paul’s Square, and its new office is in Ingleby House in Cannon Street. 
 
Director Alex Pimley said: "We launched the consultancy in 2017 with a desire to do things a little differently by providing our clients with a more personal service.
 
"The past 12 months have been particularly busy for us. We have successfully attracted new clients across the country in new and existing sectors and seen a 200 per cent increase in repeat business.
 
"We were keen to maintain our headquarters and invest further in Birmingham because there is a thriving commercial property sector and the city benefits from excellent transport links, which are convenient for our national clients.
 
"We also have the flexibility to grow further within Ingleby House as we win more business. We’re looking forward to the next chapter in our growth."

Many construction contractors and clients require contractor staff to hold and display Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) smart-cards, which prove their qualifications, before allowing them on site. 
 
Here at Time and Attendance Midlands, we are an IT partner of the CSCS. This means that we can provide seamless integration between the CSCS smartcard and our WinTA.NET software, which provides time management, visitor/contractor management and fire/evacuation roll-call systems. 
 
The integration takes the end-user form of a CSCS “card wizard”. This set of rules allows a company to quickly grant construction contractors
recognition by and access to our hardware, such as clocking terminals, turnstiles, and door controllers. The wizard will run one of three scenarios when giving access rights to contractors. These are:
 
Contractors who are completely new to the system.
Contractors whose name exists on the system but their CSCS card has not been entered.
Contractors who are fully recorded on the system and have used their card at other sites, but are new to this particular site.
 
For each different scenario the wizard will guide the user through the enrolment procedure. The result is that:
The contractor’s CSCS card is read (using a USB card reader attached to a Tensor.NET Client PC)
Details are extracted from the card to update the contractor’s details within the system
Options such as a company, site, shift group and department are assigned to the cardholder
 
To make it easier to include new contractors in your site’s existing health and safety and security procedures, please contact us today. We can handle any size site: our Enterprise software is able to perform for global, multi-site corporations with thousands of employees/users, while our Start edition helps small businesses with between 10 – 50 users.
