In the Midlands and Southwest, four major development sites were gearing up for thousands of new homes, schools, and commercial spaces, but there was a problem. With planning still in its early stages, securing new utility connections wasn’t straightforward. On top of that, two sites needed existing electricity and gas infrastructure diverted, making the process even more complex. Without a clear strategy, delays and unexpected costs were inevitable. BTS Property Consultancy stepped in to bring clarity to the chaos. We worked closely with District Network Operators to establish early budget estimates and pinpoint connection points, despite limited initial data. By sourcing competitive quotations from Independent Connection Providers and aligning with our specialist surveyors, we ensured that new connections and diversions were planned in tandem rather than as separate hurdles to overcome later. Developers had a clear roadmap from the start, with potential capacity issues flagged early and all connection points secured. By taking a proactive and coordinated approach, we kept the projects on track, turning uncertainty into a structured plan for progress.
