TriConnex to launch new service offering increasing developer support

We are pleased to announce plans to launch our new Grid Dynamix Service, that will support residential developers in finding, capturing, and keeping the electrical connections they require for their live project pipeline.

We are using our extensive grid experience to provide a unique service that plans power connections for developers’ schemes with certainty in the midst of the race for grid capacity.

With pressure on housebuilders coming from many areas, a Project Power Plan for each scheme in developers’ pipelines will keep customers close to the grid, improve their certainty, and include a rapid information flow in what is a fast changing environment.

Our new service will enable residential developers to have their connections delivered on-time and with full support throughout the life cycle of their project.

TriConnex Director Chris Doré joins NHQB Technical Panel

When TriConnex was established in 2011 it was with customer service and quality delivery at the forefront of everything we do, and that remains today. One of our founding Directors Chris Doré continues to ensure this focus with our teams as the business grows, he works closely with industry bodies and our customers to understand their challenges and support them.

Chris has recently joined the New Homes Quality Board (NHQB) an independent not-for-profit body which was established to develop a new framework to oversee reforms in the build quality of new homes and the customer service provided by developers.

Chris Doré commented:
“I am proud to have been appointed as a member of the technical panel alongside the other 15 members supporting the board of the NHQB to represent the residential utilities sector and how our vital area of new build developments can help ensure the best service for homebuying customers, now and in the future.”

As Government and the housebuilding industry looks to further increase the number of homes being built, it is imperative that build quality and customer service is an absolute priority.

The NHQB aims to deliver a step change in how the house building industry operates and deals with customers. And TriConnex looks forward to supporting this vital goal.


NAVigating the water connections market

Developers have a choice of water network solution depending on who they choose as their connections provider.  Traditionally, a Self-Lay Provider (SLP) such as TriConnex would build water networks that are subsequently adopted by one of the regional water companies such as Thames Water. However more recently, NAVs have emerged.

A NAV (New Appointment and Variation) is an independently owned water network that sits within the region of the main water company such as Thames Water.

Over the last few years, TriConnex has been offering NAV networks to developers as part of their multi-utility connection offering – where TriConnex builds the network which is subsequently adopted by the independent asset owner (who operates and maintains the network going forward).

The uptake of NAVs by developers has been rapid.  The main benefit to the developer is a reduced up-front capital cost which helps with the developer’s own cash flow.

The home-owner end customer experience is exactly the same for both options and the costs are regulated in the same manner by Ofwat.

TriConnex has a wealth of experience in the delivery of NAV water networks for developers.  Having designed the network to the developer’s requirements our dedicated operations managers work with the housebuilder site teams throughout the project to make sure connection delivery is aligned with the developer build programme. That’s connections, delivered on time.
