"Never have universities and colleges been more important to our country both nationally, in ensuring our success on the world stage, and locally in our towns and cities, through the creation of jobs and new skills, driving regeneration and enriching cultural life." (John Denham, SoS DIUS, March 2008)
Understanding this, Watts has developed a specialist Education team, which has led, reviewed, managed and supported numerous universities’ programmes and projects. By working in partnership with our university clients, we have been able to both inform and transform the way that services are delivered to their customers.
The team comprises project managers, building surveyors and cost consultants and operates throughout our network of offices. Our comprehensive experience across all aspects of the University estate life cycle, from property acquisition, refurbishment, defect analysis, dilapidations and redevelopment enable Watts to provide an unrivalled service to this sector.
