## From the administrators' statement

3.1 In early 2017, Timothy Carrier unexpectedly passed away, with this loss placing a significant strain on the management of the Company, with Mr Brocklebank-Smith being left as the sole director to manage operations.

3.2 To try and address matters, and alleviate some of the difficulties that had arisen, a general manager was appointed on a short term basis to provide support to the management team, however, the Company’s problems were further exacerbated in jate 2017 with a key customer entering into Administration. This left the Company facing a significant loss on the works that remained unpaid for.

3.3. In early 2018, the Company’s contract with Carillion was stopped as a result of Carillion’s own insolvency. This left a significant gap in the Company’s cashflow, and as a result, it began to fall behind with its payments to HM Revenue and Customs (‘HMRC’).
