Cosgrove & Drew, specialists in Mechanical Engineering services across the South of England, has partnered with Gather to transform how they manage commercial processes and information capture as they continue to navigate the delivery of complex commercial projects.

From domestic installations to full industrial and commercial projects, plus servicing and maintenance, Cosgrove & Drew delivers best in class mechanical engineering services. As they continue to deliver complex commercial work, they understand that successful delivery requires detailed focus and accurate information capture aligned with contract requirements.

The Challenge: Managing Complex Commercial Projects

Cosgrove & Drew's experienced teams were managing increasingly complex commercial projects using systems designed for simpler work, making it difficult to capture the detailed information required for proper commercial management and contract compliance.

"The complex nature of the commercial projects we deliver, requires a different approach to the industry norm in regards to information capture" explains Cory Greening, Cosgrove & Drew. "We needed systematic processes that would enable our teams to focus on detailed delivery whilst ensuring we capture everything required for proper contract compliance."

The Solution: Centralised Platform for Real-Time Information Capture

Gather provides Cosgrove & Drew with a centralised platform that captures detailed commercial records and project information in real-time, aligned with standard method of measurement requirements. Their skilled project teams can systematically log detailed information, progress updates, and commercial variations, feeding directly into robust commercial management and contract compliance processes.

"We're helping Cosgrove & Drew scale their established capabilities to meet the rigorous demands of complex commercial contracts," comments Will Doyle, Gather CEO. "The platform supports their existing expertise whilst providing the commercial framework that complex projects demand."

With systematic information capture, Cosgrove & Drew can now handle complex commercial work with the same confidence they've always had in their mechanical engineering expertise. The platform enables their experienced teams to manage commercial requirements systematically rather than reactively addressing contract issues after they impact delivery.

"Gather gives us the systematic processes that enable our teams to focus on detailed delivery whilst ensuring we capture everything required for proper contract compliance," said Cory Greening. "We can now handle complex commercial work with confidence. It's transformed how we approach commercial project delivery."

The partnership began when Will Doyle, Gather CEO, met Cory Greening through the Quolux LEAD programme, demonstrating how the right connections can support business growth into more sophisticated commercial work.
