9. CONTRACT NEWS - VIRGIN MEDIA From Groundworks to Comprehensive EV Delivery While Kelly Group’s civil engineering expertise is traditionally synonymous with telecommunications, our capabilities have long been deployed to support the UK’s broader green energy transition. Under the leadership of Civils General Manager Tony Griffin, our teams have established a proven track record in facilitating a critical shift in national infrastructure: the large-scale rollout of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging networks. Bridging the Gap in Urban Charging Serving as a primary delivery partner for Believ (formerly Liberty Charge) since 2020, Kelly Group is responsible for the complex civil engineering required to build a fully integrated, on-street residential charging network. The project addresses one of the most significant hurdles in EV adoption: providing accessible charging for residents in high-density urban areas who lack access to private, off-street parking. The project requires a flexible operational approach, with the team’s remit adapting to the specific technical needs of each region. In the London borough of Tower Hamlets, Kelly Group successfully delivered the essential groundwork infrastructure, providing the foundational framework for a major urban rollout. From Groundworks to Comprehensive Delivery In contrast, new work in Suffolk represents a significant evolution in the service offering from Kelly Group. In this region, Kelly Group provides a comprehensive infrastructure delivery that goes far beyond traditional groundworks. Teams manage the end-to-end civil scope, from the initial excavation to the precision installation of feeder pillars and EV Charge Points, cable pulling, electrical termination and commissioning of Feeder Pillars and Charge Points. This expanded remit highlights the growing trust our partners place in our ability to deliver complex, hardware-ready sites in a single, coordinated operation. A Standard of Reliability In a sector where reliability is paramount, Kelly Group’s presence has expanded through a consistent commitment to high-quality execution. Operations Director Rashid Collins notes that our growth is a direct result of taking the client’s diverse needs seriously and executing with precision. This focus has led to our teams being entrusted with an increasing number of regions, often stepping in to ensure that installations across London and the Home Counties meet exact specifications. Success in this field is not just about the installation itself, but the meticulous coordination and civil expertise required to deliver it right first time.
