Part of our 3-D modelling service is to have Keron working with client teams to develop riser detail in the virtual world, teasing out buildability challenges, which often go undetected until they surface during construction. This helps develop the client team’s riser strategy with our experience on passive fire protection, drywall, MEP service installations, saving cost, time and designing out safety issues.

Louie Coleman
Junior Project Coordinator (3D modeller)
Louie came to us offering to work for free in order to demonstrate why he would be a suitable candidate for the junior project coordinator (3D modeller) position. The suggestion blew Alex away and he offered Louie a part time position on a month trial. Louie has done so well and he has now been employed with Ambar Kelly since the start of the year.
