“Embracing the Digital Frontier” – FP McCann’s Precast Concrete Structural Solutions feature at Silverstone.

FP McCann a precast concrete supply and install partner to Morgan Sindall is exhibiting at the company’s “Embracing the Digital Frontier” event being held at Silverstone, the home of British motor racing. With over 100 suppliers present, all part of the Morgan Sindall “Supply Chain Family”, the day presents an opportunity for members of the group’s procurement teams and a number of partnering sub-contractors to interact with exhibiting companies. On show from FP McCann are its modular precast concrete crosswall building solutions, architectural panel systems and structural precast concrete flooring.

Opening the event, Graham Edgell Morgan Sindall’s Group Director of Procurement & Sustainability welcomed everyone by saying the day was a great opportunity for staff to engage and collaborate with members of the supply chain family and to jointly address some of the new challenges ahead including BIM Digital Construction, an evolution of Building Information Modelling (BIM). BIM Digital Construction enables the generation and management of information on a construction project during its entire life cycle to create digital and built assets.

Attending on behalf of FP McCann are Ryan Millican, Estimating Manager and Chris Pearson, Project Manager. The exhibition gives Chris and Ryan the opportunity to sit down with members of the Morgan Sindall procurement and supply chain teams to explore upcoming project opportunities for FP McCann and to demonstrate  the Company’s use of digital technologies as part of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC).

Commenting on the event Ryan says, “We already have a healthy and growing collaborative relationship with Morgan Sindall and their construction partners and I am confident moving forward that FP McCann will be the supplier and installer of choice on a number of keynote structural precast concrete projects.”
