EV Consulting

Introduction

At Blackoak Contracts, we provide trusted groundwork solutions with a strong focus on preparation and quality. Before starting any project, our team visits prospective land to carry out detailed site investigations, assessing ground conditions, utilities, and access. We also conduct thorough drainage investigations to understand existing systems and identify potential issues early. This forward-thinking approach allows us to design and implement effective drainage and groundwork strategies, preventing costly problems and delays.

Pre-Start Support

To support a smooth start on every project, Blackoak will attend pre-start meetings on site with you or your client, ensuring clear communication, shared understanding, and a proactive approach to planning. We can also discuss the project with other contractors and ICP companies to make sure all parties are aligned, helping deliver a seamless and efficient project from the outset.

Tender Stage Assistance

We provide valuable support at the tender stage, helping assess project requirements and advising on realistic programme lengths. In addition, we can help create rate cards and tender analysis to align with your client’s expectations, ensuring clear cost control and efficiency from the outset.

Our Commitment

With skilled expertise, modern equipment, and a commitment to excellence, Blackoak Contracts ensures every project is delivered to the highest standard, building strong foundations from the ground up.

CDM & Traffic Management

Our team can also assist with the design and set-up of a CDM site, addressing buildability challenges and developing clear construction phase plansBlackoak can also help assist with traffic management, ensuring safe and efficient site access for all stakeholders.

Engineering Collaboration

We work closely with structural engineers to design road specifications and build-ups, ensuring every detail is fit for purpose. We also liaise with site engineers to create precise datum points, reducing the risk of costly mistakes and keeping the project on track.

"Black Oak have been working with Actemium UK Limited and specifically the Coventry Division that I Manage for 3-4 years. They provide Civil Construction Services for our Electric Vehicle Charging Projects across the length and breadth of the UK. That involves site works within Motorway Service Stations, Private Workplace Offices/Factories, Main Car Dealerships etc…We have found Blackoak to be extremely reliable and flexible in a fast pace and rapidly evolving EV Charging Sector and they are a core component to our project delivery team. They work effectively with our Project Managers and on-site electricians and are considered to be an extension to our own directly employed labour force. Attitude to Health & Safety is excellent and they are always willing to work with us to improve our approach on site, they have participated in some of our internal quarterly meetings with the Actemium Team where we discuss H&S and that helps them to understand our culture and mentality on the subject matter."

Actemium - Nick ChambersBusiness Unit General Manager

Due to the scope and scale of some of our larger projects we decided we needed to partner with a larger groundworks contractor who could fulfil our requirements. We trialled a number of companies and found that Blackoak could deliver on price and quality and uphold the company’s reputation and high standards. Chris is great to deal with and always happy to go the extra mile to make sure a project runs smoothly for all concerned.”

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the contractors and site staff for their patience and support during the construction and install of our 2 x new 175kW chargers. Despite challenges on site, it is with everyone’s help and support that this project was complete before the new year."
