OVERVIEW

In 2006, Kingston acted as a cost consultant and project manager, providing life costing advice for Aspire Defense (Kellogg Brown & Root and Carillion) in order to compete the £1,000m redevelopment of the British Army’s Garrison around Salisbury Plain and Aldershot. The Allenby/Connaught project aimed to provide a modern living and working accommodation for more than 18,000 military and civilian personnel.

• Office and conference spaces;
• Training spaces;
• Workshop and storage spaces (including munitions);
• Medical facilities;
