BP Mitchell show that traditional values pay dividends

When Brendan Mitchell formed his company he set his stall by a singular vision to provide a multi-skilled service to the building and construction industry. It was in this environment that quality of service, and total reliability, was the hallmark that separated the 'men from the boys.'

The company began life as a single owner driver, but this soon developed into a large multi-faceted organisation requiring careful management and nurturing in those early days. In the years that followed the company has acquired a vast fleet of vehicles, which encompasses plant to service every conceivable need on the building site. Every project is personally supervised by Brendan Mitchell, who takes great pride in the quality of service delivered to all of his valued clients. In Brendan’s own words: “our business has grown through the range and variety of projects we have undertaken over the years. But more importantly, our growth has been sustained by the numerous clients referred to us by 'word of mouth' and personal recommendation.”

Changes within the construction industry has placed onerous demands and challenges for contractors, and these demands require very high standards when it comes to delivering service on site. B P Mitchell is ideally suited for the 'front end of the business', where the fast track bulk excavation, site clearance, recycling, haulage and material supply can be delivered on demand. To this end they are currently able to supply quality topsoil, washed sharp sand, recycled sharp sand, ballast, MOT type 1 (Limestone), crushed concrete products Type 1/Type 2/6F1/6F2, recycled 10/20/40mm stone - all of which are crushed by the Sandvik range of crushing equipment.

The key tool in this successful operation has been the Sandvik QJ340 tracked jaw crusher. This excellent crusher (B P Mitchell currently is using their fifth such machine) utilises Sandvik’s unrivalled design and manufacturing expertise to build upon the success of the world’s best selling track-mounted mobile jaw crusher, the Extec C-12+.

Compact and mobile, the QJ340 is powered by a C-9 engine that meets all known emissions standards, and boasts a large feed opening and unique high crushing speed that delivers high outputs and excellent product size reduction for maximum productivity and profitability. Durability and reliability are ensured by a reverse crushing action capability to relieve blockages and by an automatic lubrication system that is fitted as an option.

Plant hire is also another vital aspect of the business, and quite often part of the large fleet can be out working in partnership with many associate friends who see BPM as an integral part of their business. And why do people go to B P Mitchell? In Brendan’s view it’s down to “A well earned reputation is born out of consistently providing good service at a price that's affordable and a delivery record that often exceeds the client’s expectations.”

Although traditional business values of quality service, reliability and customer focus have been the guiding lights of B P Mitchell’s business, they have not been slow to embrace modern thinking when it comes to staff development, health and safety. Great emphasis is placed upon the importance of acquiring professional training and skills for all staff. New operatives are rigorously assessed and must be CITB or CMPE trained in order to work for the company. Site operations staff are fully conversant with current health and safety regulations, and possess the relevant knowledge to deal with any issues on site.

Having worked with many local authorities and municipal bodies throughout the UK, B P Mitchell’s in-depth knowledge of disposing hazardous materials, contaminated soil waste and transporting abnormal loads off site is a positive benefit when faced with such problems.

B P Mitchell boasts an impressive list of clients ranging from Borough Councils to Airport Authorities, from School Projects to Leisure Parks, Local Developers to Infrastructure Projects. The company motto is based on four words - delivering service on site - and has been proved by their continuing growth in these difficult times.
