Case Study number 2
Holy Trinity Church Clapham

Reach ETG Limited supported MDPB by delivering the full pricing and commercial breakdown for the 1st fix carpentry package at Holy Cross, Clapham—work which contributed to MDPB securing and successfully winning the project.
Reach ETG Limited began with a detailed review of all drawings, specifications, schedules, and site constraints to define the precise scope of the 1st fix carpentry works. This included studwork and partition framing, door linings, riser fronts, service boxing, window boards, and all carpentry elements essential to the early internal build.
A comprehensive take-off was completed, ensuring every measurable item was quantified accurately and supported by clear methodology. Labour, materials, fixings, sheet goods, and logistics considerations were built up meticulously to produce a transparent and defensible cost model.
Production rates, waste allowances, access constraints, and sequencing were carefully analysed to ensure the pricing reflected real site conditions rather than generic assumptions. Benchmarking against market rates, recent similar projects, and supplier quotations ensured the submission was competitive while maintaining commercial robustness.
Reach ETG Limited also assessed preliminaries, management costs, delivery strategy, and risk allowances, ensuring MDPB’s offer remained both attractive and commercially protected. Key clarifications, exclusions, and qualification notes were prepared to strengthen MDPB’s negotiating position and avoid later ambiguity.
The pricing submission was issued in a clear, structured format, enabling the client team to understand the logic behind the figures and supporting MDPB in securing the contract.
By providing a detailed, well-supported and commercially strong pricing package, Reach ETG Limited helped position MDPB as the preferred contractor and contributed directly to the successful award of the 1st fix carpentry contract at Holy Trinity Church, Clapham.
