Graham Mills and Sam Lucking recently attended the inaugural Pii event held at the excellent East India Club in St James’s Square, London. A cross section of property professionals attended the event and were plied with champagne, wine and canapés whilst networking and listening to speeches. Graham gave a presentation on ‘Modern Surveying Methods’ which covered how surveying has changed in recent years, the significant increase in speed of data capture, new survey scanning instruments, Small Unmanned Aircraft, Building Information Modelling and the benefits all of this progression will bring to clients.Technics Group were delighted to be invited to the event and look forward to working with the team at Property Insurance Initiatives in the future.

Technics Group have just completed the latest phase of works on an on-going project with Charterfield Asset Management. Charterfield Co-Founder Tim Edwards tells us how Technics Group contributed to a successful project:
“In 2010 we purchased a 400 acre site in an area of highly sensitive environmental biodiversity and national landscape designations including Green Belt, AGLV and AONB. The existing properties are Listed Grade 11 and were subject to considerable restrictions in potential development terms.
In 2011 we submitted an elaborate and complicated planning application that incorporated a significant change of use for the land and buildings. The application comprised of a new golf course (situated on 200 acres), clubhouse, maintenance building and separate hotel, spa, health club, restaurant complex and staff residential accommodation. This amounted to a total area of around 80,000 square feet of new build or extensively refurbished buildings.
The application was successfully approved by the local council in 2012.
As a thank you to our team for their hard work over the past few months we took them all to a Country Estate in Surrey. Under the glorious sunshine we started with a plentiful barbecue before taking turns on the two gun clay pigeon shoot. The shooting brought out everyones competitive side and sharp shooter of the day went to Utility Surveyor Jak Harper, proving that he is not just good at finding targets below the ground!
