Ducreux Ltd

The most recent commissions following the formation of Ducreux Ltd were to provide technical advice for Hertfordshire County Council and Sandwell Metropolitan Councils. Herefordshire County Council commissioned Larry and Mark to assist in the preparation of the 2012 highways contract which is a 10 year MAC based contract. This will involve the re-scoping of the existing services provided by the incumbent service providers to provide a “safe and operational” service and radically change the service delivery structure. They will also prepare and deliver a “change programme” which will reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. It is anticipated that saving will be in the order of between £3m to £5m sterling, based on existing energy modelling and infrastructure. The Sandwell commission was to review and implement a full scale replacement programme of all the Authorities lighting stock over a 50 year timeframe, producing energy and maintenance savings. It is anticipated that this project will utilise LED fittings mounted on Aluminium columns to provide the longevity required for the installations.
