Keltbray Built Environment has delivered a major turnaround, posting a \u00a33.2m pre-tax profit last year, a sharp recovery from just \u00a344,000 in the prior year.<\/p>\n

Turnover rose 17% to \u00a3364m, while gross profit jumped 71% as the business tightened up opportunity selection and improved project delivery through its Integrated Project Model.<\/p>\n

The model sees several of Keltbray\u2019s early-stage construction specialist services delivered under one roof, giving clients a single point of accountability and more efficient execution.<\/p>\n

A more disciplined bidding strategy also helped boost performance, with the Executive Investment Panel now vetting all new jobs based on margin, risk, and strategic fit \u2013 not just turnover.<\/p>\n

Cashflow followed suit, with year-end reserves up \u00a35.8m off the back of stronger profit conversion and better working capital management. The division remains debt-free and has access to Keltbray Group\u2019s \u00a330m Metro Bank facility.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, the division has \u00a3302m of secured workload going into FY25 and expects to hit \u00a3350m revenue. Half-year performance is said to be on track, with further profit growth forecast.<\/p>\n

The business will stay focused on technically demanding projects.<\/p>\n
