Having worked with Matchtech on the Blauwwind Project, where they supported the resource delivery, primarily for the Commissioning element of the resources, including the provision of WTG Commissioning Engineers, Supervisors, Control Engineers, and SAP's as well as myself the Commissioning Manager, I felt it necessary to provide a few words regarding the Matchtech team and their endeavours to be a provider of services, in support for the Crosswind Project. The professional and cordial approach to which Matchtech supported the Blauwwind Project deserves recognition. The calibre of resources provided was extremely high and the management of the related difficulties associated with the C19 situation was handled very well, with open and clear communications between all the teams.

Matchtech and the Clancy group have formed a very successful partnership securing some key resource ahead of our growth.
