From the administrators' statement
We are advised the business was originally established in Canterbury, Kent in 1985 and incorporated in 1989 (Certificate No 02356045) Over the years it traded as an international, multi disciplinary construction consultancy providing the services of Project Managers, Architects, Cost Consultants, Interior Designers, Construction Consultants and Planning Superwsors
The Company Iatterly operated from office accommodation at 72 St Dunstan's Street, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 8BL, the iandiord to which is Roger Wenn, the founder who retired from the Company in 2008 Trading was relatively successful but fee income came under pressure following the credit crunch of 2008 when a number of projects were put on hold, as development funding became harder to source
The then directors undertook a review of the Company's financial position and decided to rationalise the business by selling the Architectural division At this stage Patrick McConkey and his team left the Company to work for the purchaser It was anticipated that having divested itself of a non pertorming division, that the business would be able to weather the financial crisis
