civil engineering contractor also specialising in private and
affordable house building, facilities management, property development
and PFI employing 11,000 people worldwide and turnover (2008)

KPH is a unification of the residential and affordable
arms within the Kier Group created to more closely align the activities
of its residential businesses. This is as a consequence of the
Group’s refocus towards social housing delivery and away
from speculative housing delivery. The new division is better
equipped to respond to the current market conditions and the emphasis
upon social housing provision within a mixed tenure context.
KPH aims to provide an integrated solution to the
public sector in delivery of innovative solution to housing need,
specifically in challenging markets. KPH has the capacity and
expertise to deliver large scale regeneration projects, respond
to the challenges of Local Housing Companies, Housing PFI and
the Homes and Communities Agency’s affordable housing strategy.
Indeed, KPH enjoys partner status with the Home and Community
Agency and is able to apply for and receive the grant directly.
KPH also offers social housing solutions working
directly with Housing Associations to deliver a range of services
from general needs housing, supported and special needs housing,
student accommodation, sheltered and extra care housing.
Working closely with Kier Regional, the contracting
division within Kier Group, we are able to offer a ‘total
solution’ service to our clients. From site, identification,
assembly, civil engineering and land buying to new build, refurbishment,
support services and facilities management, we operate across
all sectors to deliver sustainable mixed use solutions in a socially
responsible manner.
Utilising the resources of our land bank and through
framework agreements and negotiated contracts KPH builds approximately
2,000 homes per year.
KPH operates out of four regional offices and represents
a geographical management structure. The head office is based
at Lysander House, Sandy Bedfordshire with further offices in
Glasgow, Scotland, Aldridge in the West Midlands and West Malling
in Kent. From our regional bases we provide a local response to
our clients needs by the establishment of on-site sub-regional
teams. |
