Bob Balcombe of Babcock Dyncorp comments…
“Elliott Modular Buildings were involved with the delivery of this urgent military requirement for the supply of a large, fully furnished, temporary accommodation unit. This required the strict control of off-site fabrication and unit delivery and on-site installation, all during one of the worst winters in recent memory.
Elliott Modular Buildings now form an integral part in our ability to supply flexible estate solutions within a highly dynamic defence environment.”
