Said the following about Robert Regan:

“Rob is a Chartered Civil Engineer. He has shown his excellent professional dedicated service in various areas on Wigan Depot scheme, which is very complex in nature in terms of its layout, amount of civil’s interventions (embankment, structures earthwork etc.) integrating with other disciplines i.e. signalling, OLE, Track, M&E and Operations. The estimated cost of the scheme is circa £45m.

Team Player: Rob is a natural team player and worked very well with any team member either NR or suppliers organisation. He always listens and contribute to the right level in any engineering discussion. Transitioning from a design organisation to project environment was very smooth for Rob and quickly gained the authority to work from the LDE-Civil to work as Civil’s PE. His respect toward fellow colleagues was noticeable and made him very popular within the team.

Stakeholder’s management: Rob has displayed an exemplary role to manage stakeholders specially RAM organisation. He has engaged with both the design team and RAM organisation in order to deliver the best solution for the scheme. His sustained efforts in managing stakeholders has allowed us to maintain the tight programme and quickly overcome any issues

Accountable, collaborative, care, respect: Rob takes full responsibility for his own work and always happy to share his experiences to others. He maintained regular discussion with the project team and the design team and sometimes challenged the design decisions made by supplier’s organisation in a very collaborative manner. He communicates well with others and supported the design team to develop complex design when required/requested. His collaborative and proactive approach in managing design requirement and RAM’s expectation has resulted into a timely delivery of design and allowed us to complete to stage works on time.“
