We’re proud of our long association with RollsRoyce, which dates back to the 1980s. Having delivered over 100 design-and-build and commission-only projects in the years since, the relationship was renewed in 2017 with the award of a new framework, a framework set for further renewal in 2020.

2019 marked the third year of the new framework. In this time, JN Bentley has fully-established itself within the Rolls-Royce business: the contract started as a national framework which saw us take on schemes from Scotland to the south coast of England; it has since evolved to see us awarded specific Rolls-Royce facilities at which we are establishing high-performing teams and strong relationships.

The JN Bentley Rolls-Royce team grew in 2019 as we expanded our design capabilities, tapping into expertise in the wider Mott MacDonald Group. The mechanical, electrical and process (MEP) resource also developed, and we now have up to 60 people working in the framework delivering a diverse portfolio of design-and-build schemes with a prestigious client. Working diligently with their environmental colleagues to ensure ecological compliance, the team at Ansty was named Be Recognised winners.

Highlighting our highways capability, at Ansty we formed a new network of roads and carparks to improve access on site.

Ansty lies on a former RAF base where RollsRoyce developed their early jet engines. Here we constructed two new access roads, tying them into an existing roadway. We also built car parks, new three-sided swarf store and associated It was critical that Rolls-Royce could continue dayto-day operations unimpeded by our works.

◄ Ready for take off Rolls-Royce’s Heathrow facility is home to their ‘Engine Overhaul Services’ (EOS) team.

In 2019 we completed the installation of two new cranes. Following a clash detection survey, we raised and diverted services in an already congested roof space to accommodate two 20T overhead cranes, one spanning 37m.

Spending months working in this live operational environment, security and cleanliness was key. The team underwent specialist training to ensure safety was never compromised by ‘foreign object debris’.
