Ian Watson - Bursar,
The Royal Grammar School, Guildford
John Smith has been a consultant to the School for nearly 20 years providing both M&E and project management services. This has been a period of significant change and growth and the School has been fortunate to have the continuity and dedication that John and his team have provided. We are particularly grateful that John and his colleagues have gone out of their way to bring their knowledge and experience of the School to bear in a multitude of large and small projects, often giving us the benefit of their advice well beyond their normal span of activity.

Jeff Simpson - Corporate Treasurer,
Steer Davies Gleave
We recently had five air conditioning units upgraded and given the complexity of both the installation and our own relative inexperience engaged John Smith of Platform Consulting to oversee the works on our behalf.
It soon became apparent that John had a wealth of experience and overviewed the entire operation through all its stages leaving us free to get on with our work. We enjoyed a trouble free installation due in no small part to Johns involvement.
I would have no hesitation in engaging John again should the need arise.
Ken Woodcock - Bursar,
Our Lady of Sion School
I have worked with John Smith and Platform Consulting for several years especially on two large projects which they project managed for the school.
These were the rebuilding of the Nursery Block, (in which they designed the environmentally friendly services), and the installation of an all weather play area. The advice and help given to me and the school has been first class. I am only too pleased to recommend John and Platform Consulting for their expertise, caring and knowledgeable approach.
