140 jobs threatened as civil engineer falls into administration
Yorkshire-based civil engineer Hewlett Construction has gone into administration.
Administrators from the P&A group have been appointed to the SME firm.
In a statement to 黑洞社区, P&A said: 鈥淛ohn Russell and Ashleigh Fletcher of The P & A Partnership in Sheffield were appointed Administrators鈥� of Hewlett Construction Limited on 28 May 2015.
鈥淭he administrators鈥� are currently assessing the company鈥檚 affairs and will report to creditors in due course.鈥�
P&A confirmed the Yorkshire-based firm had 140 staff working in its offices in the UK.
Hewlett Construction was formed from a management buy-out from Hewlett Group days after four of its subsidiaries entered administration in January 2013. At the time the deal saved 300 jobs.
The group has five divisions 鈥� highways, power and process, rail, renewable and residential 鈥� and operates from offices in Leeds, Leamington Spa, Corby and Perth in Scotland.
It started expansion into the Middle Eastern market in 2012 and also has a small number of staff working at an office in Muscat, Oman.
Hewlett was recently awarded a contract with the Ministry of Tourism in Oman for an external works package at the five-star Al Bustan Palace Hotel in Muscat.
