RWO wins six-figure contract for Advanced Manufacturing Park project



The Leeds team at civil and structural engineering specialist RWO has secured a six-figure contract to support the latest phase of the Advanced Manufacturing Park in South Yorkshire.

R-Evolution phase 4 is part of the 150-acre Advanced Manufacturing Park, which is being developed on Government Enterprise Zone status land off M1 Junction 33 near Rotherham, by land and property regeneration specialist Harworth Group.

Eventually, more than two million sq ft of industrial space is set to be developed, generating an estimated 4,000 new manufacturing jobs. The site is already home to Rolls-Royce, Boeing, McLaren Automotive and the UK Atomic Energy Authority.

Park Place-based RWO will provide civil and structural engineering services to support the build of three buildings comprising 93,000 sq ft of office and industrial workspace.

The new space is set to be designed and constructed to the highest BREAM environmental and sustainability standards, including EV charging points, rainwater harvesting and an energy efficient heating and cooling system.

Andrew Fairburn, head of RWO’s Leeds office, who is working with Wakefield-based architects’ practice The Harris Partnership on the scheme, said: “This is another major project for us, reflecting our ability to maintain a strategic view of investment projects from an engineering perspective while delivering high calibre infrastructure and detailed design work for clients.

 “We are continuing to develop our commercial offering and this latest success with Harworth comes at a time when we will see further growth over the next 18 months as we continue to develop and secure new regional and national work.”

Robert Cole, project manager at Harworth Group, added: “RWO, who continue to impress with their technical experience, are an important partner. Their expertise and insight will ensure this phase of our plans are delivered on time and to the highest standards as progress of the overall site continues apace.”

RWO, which currently employs 30 people across its two offices, is targeting revenues in excess of £3m in the next 12 months.
