BAM Construct UK chief executive Graham Cash said: 鈥淏AM Construct UK won an array of new projects in 2012 that demonstrates our range and versatility. We formed some significant new client relationships with customers who want high value construction and property services. We continue to innovate and to offer additional value to customers, for example, in the way we are developing building information modelling to help our customers manage their completed buildings more efficiently.鈥�
BAM Nuttall chief executive Steve Fox said: 鈥淏AM Nuttall achieved a margin that exceeds most competitors and places us among the top performing businesses in the civil engineering market. Our order book remains strong, vindicating our selective approach to work winning. We continue to invest in developing our employees and supply chain聽 and continue to work with other BAM companies and in joint ventures, when appropriate, to leverage our business into a superior and sustainable position.鈥�
BAM PPP UK managing director Robert Young said: 鈥淒uring 2012 we continued to work closely and flexibly with our existing clients, adapting and benchmarking our services and assisting them to manage change. The UK PPP market is currently providing some exciting opportunities for BAM in the education, transportation and health sectors and we hope that the emergence in 2013 of PF2 as the successor to PFI will act to stimulate the market more widely throughout the United Kingdom.鈥�
BAM PPP UK鈥檚 work in hand fell from 拢483.6m last time to 拢312.5m.
