GPS is changing the way it is organised, moving from functional departments to a ‘project management’ led structure with fully integrated teams.

Three project teams have been created, each with its own design, software and site functions, which are headed up by Mike Harrison, Scott Marsh and Steve Robinson.

As part of a focus on ‘delivering for customers’ the organisation changes are primarily designed to improve the flow and coordination of projects, as well as the flow of information and customer communications.

The new structure allows all team members to work more closely with customers and the project as a whole. Taking down functional walls makes it a seamless and more accountable process and with more customer involvement and knowledge across the team, integration has benefits for both project delivery and customer service.
