The job

An industrial build is a procurement job. The portal frame, the cladding and the doors are bought as packages from suppliers who quote against a specification, and the programme depends on their lead times.

The client is a business, so the paperwork is a business's paperwork: a proper contract, VAT handled correctly, stage invoices that match the finance agreement.

Delivered by Tatton Projects (a Federation of Master Builders member, Constructionline Gold) for Pendrick Self Storage. Contract value as published by Tatton Projects.
