Risks & next steps
Section 12 · Principal risks and mitigants
Identified. Bounded. Addressed.
| Risk | Mitigant |
|---|---|
| Recurrence of contract-specific margin shortfalls | H1 root causes identified and addressed. Tighter application cycles, repricing discipline and weekly Board contract-margin review retained as standing practice. |
| Working-capital headroom on long-duration contracts | Application and collection cycles tightened post-H1. Invoice-finance facility available if required for short-term headroom on long-duration projects. |
| Acquisition integration risk | Acquisitions to be staged. Integration playbook developed pre-deployment. Acqui-hire approach for lower-risk entries. |
| Key-person dependency | Management team of three at Group level. Succession planning and incentive structures built into PE deal terms. |
| Regulatory change | Building Safety Act is directionally positive for the Group — increased compliance demand. No adverse regulatory horizon identified. |
| Labour and skills shortage | AMPM Academy directly addresses this. Short-term, existing supplier relationships manage capacity. |
