AHS Group DEVELOPMENT SCAFFOLD CONSTRUCTION SPECIALISTS COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL & INDUSTRIAL SCAFFOLDING PROPPING & SHORE LOADING | HEALTH & SAFETY EQUIPMENT HIRE/SALES Covering Waikato & BOP Region 022 043 2619 gary@scaffolding.org.nz www.summitscaffoldingwaikato.co.nz AHS Group is a construction company that has been making a name for itself in recent years by taking on increasingly challenging projects that require innovative thinking and high levels of skill and collaboration. With ability to take on entire projects from start to finish, AHS Group has quickly set itself apart from the competition, says AHS Group managing director Peter Davenport. Recently AHS Group completed its first residential development in Anzac Avenue Morrinsville. The development consisted of seven townhouses and was an opportunity for AHS to maintain project diversity, says Peter. AHS Group’s latest project in Cambridge combines the company’s commercial, medical and residential skills. The development will include 70 houses including a mix of townhouses and duplexes known as Bijou Cambridge and bespoke homes as well as the Cambridge Health Hub. The Health Hub will deliver a medical centre, day-stay hospital, specialist suites, a rehabilitation hub, hydrotherapy pool, pharmacy, dentist, optometrist, audiologist, gymnasium and a cafe. A pet hospital will provide veterinary surgical services. Peter says that AHS Group’s ability to take on the entire project from start to finish is what sets it apart from the competition. “We can do it all from design and architecture, consulting and management, and construction resources offering clients the complete package,” he says. The company employs a team of around 50 including in-house design capabilities. “We work with our clients to apply our wealth of experience and skills to design, manage and construct their project, engaging with them from concept to completion,” he says. “As we do everything in-house this results in efficiencies and the elimination of problems as our design and construction team work together early on in projects.” The skills that AHS Group offers has led it to operate further afield than its bases in Waikato and Bay of Plenty, throughout New Zealand. A pet food processing plant in Taumarunui is a good example of the company’s capabilities. AHS built several new buildings and carried out extensive upgrades to the existing structures. The resulting new main extruder hall is approximately 1700m2 with the apex of the roof standing at 18 metres in height. AHS also managed the design, procurement and installation management of the US built production line. AHS is currently completing additional works on the project. “The new buildings are custom made to fit the many pieces of factory plant sourced from all over the world. The finishes are hygiene grade Polypanel walls and ceilings, and the platforms and steelwork have been coated with epoxy finishes. This project really demonstrates that our team is more than capable of delivering on any challenge,” says Peter. With a mass of collective experience within the team, AHS Group has made huge leaps into the industry, securing its place among the best in the business, says Peter. The company prides itself on high quality workmanship and delivery, never compromising on quality or service. “As AHS Group’s reputation for taking on challenging and innovative projects continues to grow, with our complete package approach we are well positioned to continue expanding our reach into larger commercial and residential projects,” says Peter. “We are excited about the future and the opportunities it brings to work with new clients on new and innovative projects.” “We can do it all from design and architecture, consulting and management, and construction resources offering clients the complete package.”
