APRIL 2024 REVIEW

As we bid farewell to April, we're delighted to reflect on the strides we've taken as a team, the joyous Easter festivities, and the meteorological shifts that herald the arrival of spring.

I am thrilled to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the entire team on the successful implementation of our new Project Management System. This marks a significant milestone in our journey towards enhanced efficiencies, streamlined operations, and effective client management.

There is never a great time to disrupt such a busy schedule, but thanks to meticulous planning and dedication to training and onboarding by all, it was seamless. I for one am looking forward to fully leveraging this system to achieve even greater success.

Well done team!

I also want to praise our team in the field - their dedication and hard work through what has been a long and wet start to the year has meant we have continued to meet deadlines and exceed client expectations. Thank you!

Please keep on reading to see what else the PGE crew have been up to, and next month I’ll have some exciting news to report, including a new recruit to stronghold and lead our Maintenance division.

As always, thank you for being an integral part of our journey. Here's to a memorable April and the promise of even brighter days ahead!
