The Technik Ground Solutions, which is an expert geotechnical contractor and presents minipiling, micropiling and other geotechnical solutions, has been acquired by RSK Group.
The establishing date of Technik GS is 20011 and its offices are located in Runcorn, London and Glasgow in the UK.
While this company works with a variety of clients, including construction companies, developers, structural engineers, multidisciplinary consulting engineers and architects, it also is active in most industry sectors, such as construction, energy, utilities, infrastructure, manufacturing, petrochemical, distribution and defense.
In 2021/2022 financial year, after development of the group’s recent Irish expansion, Technik GS constitutes RSK’s tenth acquisition.
As RSk states, while Technik GS has a potent focus on providing sound, cost-effective engineering solutions for complicated foundation and geotechnical applications, RSK’s present group of businesses is also going to support Technik GS’s geotechnical testing and ground investigations.
RSK CEO and founder Alan Ryder said: “TechnikGS will undoubtedly be a strong addition to our offering and will expand and strengthen our geotechnical provision. We already have a good relationship with the business through existing RSK group companies and we know the high-quality and innovative solutions that it can provide.”
Technik GS’s existing management team of Graham Lewis, Paul Whinfield, Kevin Christie and Paul Woodfield will continue to lead the business. It will become part of RSK’s Geosciences and Engineering division and will gain the backup and direction of divisional director George Tuckwell.
“We are delighted to join the RSK group and look forward to working with our RSK sister companies. Our values are shared by RSK, and this acquisition will provide a platform for continuous improvement and structured growth. We are excited about the new opportunities and challenges ahead,” asserted Lewis.
The major intention of RSK, which is a united environmental, engineering and technical services business, is to creating almost £1bn turnover per a year and employing 10,000 people around the world by 2025, although it is actively funding in the advancement of new businesses and bolt-on acquisitions, as well as equipment and facilities.
