('Sweett Group')

Sweett Group, the global provider of professional services for the construction and management of building and infrastructure projects, has been appointed by Amec Foster Wheeler and WSP Parsons Brinckerhoff, via the Homes and Community Agency (HCA) framework, on three projects for Westminster City Council.

Dudley House is a mixed-use development to include Marylebone Boys' School (840 pupils), together with a dedicated private rented sector (PRS) residential tower. The project will also include the re-provision of the Central Pentecostal Church. Sweett Group will provide contract administration, quantity surveying, Clerk of Works and principal designer services.

In addition, Sweett Group will provide quantity surveying services on two further projects. Marylebone library development is the creation of a new custom-built, state-of-the-art library. Owing to its prime location, the development will also look to include nine luxury residential apartments. Lisson Arches is a residential scheme comprising 59 one-bedroom self-contained sheltered housing apartments and one two-bedroom manager's apartment with communal facilities.

The combined value of the three developments exceeds £100m.

Sweett Group's Director, Stephen Oxley, said: 'We are delighted to be appointed on these three high-profile projects for Westminster City Council. We have an excellent reputation in the local authority sector and we have provided the Council with a professional team who have extensive experience of delivering projects of a similar nature.'
