AMP Consultants Information

AMP was established in 1992 and takes its name from the company’s three founders – Alan Caygill, Malcolm Harding and Peter Readman, who all previously worked for Darlington-based Conder Structures, part of a UK-wide structural engineering group. The three men, each an experienced structural engineer, pooled their expertise to initially provide fast, accurate and economic designs for a small client base previously served by Conder. The design of steel frame structures and superstructures for the building construction industry quickly became a core specialist service. However, as demand for AMP’s design and engineering expertise grew, so the company has diversified – to the extent that it now has an internationally-recognised capability to offer complete structural design, architectural and engineering solutions covering the whole building structure as well as an extensive portfolio of specialist capabilities. David Hodgson became Managing Director of AMP in 2006 following the death of Alan Caygill. Phillip Gunn was promoted to Technical Director in 2016 and became a shareholder in 2017.
