2012

Sitec have launched a small cells division in order to deal with the future demand for 4G.

Small Cells include femtocells, picocells and microcells and are deployed in a wide range of areas from residential installations, to urban locations in order to improve and maintain mobile telecommunication coverage and capacity in areas where macrocell base stations may require support to maintain network strength.

David Hawthorne Sitec’s Acquisition Director commented, “Small cells are going to play a crucial role in delivering fast 4G services to the mobile networks and the depth of experience we have in this sector will prove invaluable”

A great effort from the Sitec team who completed the 60 mile London to Cambridge bike ride on Sunday 22nd July. We were somewhat saddle sore but in good spirits throughout, despite parts of Essex and Herts being more hilly than expected.

The atmosphere was fantastic from start to finish at Midsummer Common in Cambridge. We have raised more than £1,000 for Breakthrough Breastcancer so well done to all who took part, helped out in the support vehicle and donated to Sitec’s Just Giving page.

A job well done.

Sitec is delighted to welcome Sarah Gibbs to the telecoms acquisition team at the Cambridge office. Sarah will assist the estate management and acquisition work on recent contract wins in our busy telecoms division.

Sarah has considerable property experience within both the commercial property and telecoms sectors.   Her input and experience will be invaluable in helping to deliver the first class service we pride ourselves in.

Eight brave souls from Sitec’s Cambridge office have signed up and are raring to go for this year’s London to Cambridge bike ride on Sunday 22nd July.   This year’s charity is the very worthy Breakthrough Breast Cancer.   We have set up a justgiving page justgiving.com/Sitec-Is and would be most grateful for any charitable donations.

We will keep you updated on aching limbs, lost in Essex stories and promise not to post too many unsuitable pictures of men (who should know better) wearing lycra!

Sitec have signed a new 5 year lease for larger premises on the Cambridge Research Park.   Sitec Director David Hawthorne commented “The Research Park has provided an excellent base here for the last few years, so having out-grown our current offices we are very pleased to expand our operations to the new larger premises on the same site”.

The 112 acre Park tranferred ownership from SEGRO to Mountgrange in 2011 and reverted to its original name ‘Cambridge Research Park’ from the more recent ‘IQ Cambridge’.    The move is due to be completed in the next few weeks in a seamless transition for staff and clients alike.

Sitec is pleased to announce the appointment of Stuart Cheslett to the telecoms team at the Cambridge office.

Stuart is a highly experienced and well respected project manager in the telecoms industry and will be managing a number of large acquisition and design contracts to ensure smooth on time delivery of sites to clients.

Sitec Infrastructure Services is based on the Cambridge Research Park in Waterbeach and provides specialist surveying, engineering and construction services in the telecommunications, utilities and renewable energy sectors.

Sitec exhibited at Anglia Ruskin University’s Built Environment Employment Fair in Chelmsford this month. Sitec have a long association with the University with many employees both past and present having completed surveying or engineering qualifications at the University. Adam and Chris were inundated with enquiries and came away very impressed by the quality of the students they met and the standard of facilities. Sitec have a number of graduate positions coming up for both Design Engineers and Surveyors either as permanent or placement opportunities.

We are pleased to advise that in 2011 we achieve a 12% reduction in Opex costs for our customer on the transactions completed.

The Sitec offices witnessed the high winds and treacherous weather over the past few days at the Cambridge Research Park.

Thankfully inbetween the wind and rain, Chris and some of the team had time for a lunchtime stroll around the park and he was just in the right place at the right time to take this beautiful photograph above Building 7200.

They tried to find the gold at the end of rainbow, but unfortunately ran out of time and had to come back to work! Better luck next time guys!
