Innovation awards

“Creativity is what drives Waldeck. It’s in the way we design and in how we add value to our clients’ projects while still reducing the budget. We are focused on continual improvement and innovation. We’re always encouraging our staff, whatever part of the business they work in, to think outside the box and we reward them for their great ideas, so we’ve formalised this into a monthly Innovation Award,” says Paul Waldeck.

“We encourage ideas throughout the business, from suggestions about social media, impact/opportunities from new legislation, systems, IT and new applications for existing methodologies to intelligence on land that is about to become available for development ahead of the market.”

 

Anthony Tew wins the January 2012 award for an insurance initiative relating to Waldecks flood risk services.

The December 2011 award goes to Tony Chapman for his proposal for the development of a Waldeck app for smartphones which is being progressed at the moment.

October 2011 – The winners are a joint venture Gavin Shinkin and Majid Ahmed from our Peterborough office for their input on a bespoke lift shaft design flyer

August 2011 – Majid Ahmed of our Peterborough office for a new structural design software idea using Master Series with the potential to save designer many hours of data input. It is a great example of innovation, research and development which will hopefully, generate a new method for us to use that will save time and money.
