‘As Rochester Station is nearing completion, can I please take this opportunity to thank Kemada for another difficult project completed on time. We all know that this contract has been particularly challenging in regards to timescale’s and that certain people have been put under immense pressure to complete on time. One person in particular is Paul Adams (Kemada site manager) who has carried out all and more that has been asked of him. Paul has driven the contract from start to completion getting required site instruction, test results as and when required. Once again thank you.’ Steve Burn, Project Manager, C. Spencer.
