PMR Construction

What PMR Construction does

PMR Construction (Cov) Ltd is a UK Midlands-based design-build construction and civil engineering contractor founded in 1983 and headquartered in Coventry. The firm delivers turnkey building solutions across civil engineering, interior fit-out, reactive maintenance, building dilapidations, design and build, new build construction, restoration and renovation, and building refurbishment for enterprise clients primarily in the Automotive, Industrial and Logistics sectors, with additional exposure to Manufacturing, Education, Health, Retail and Residential. Disclosed contract values span roughly £200K to £2.8M per project, with the Senior Estimator job posting citing a £10K-£8M range across the full portfolio.

The company operates with a small core team of approximately 12-13 staff combining directly employed operatives and managed subcontractors, supported by a senior leadership group with 20-40 years of construction experience. Following a 2019 management buyout by Joint Managing Directors Chris Oakley and Chris Morrall, the firm has invested in commercial capacity (two Business Development Managers and a Senior Quantity Surveyor added in 2023), refreshed its corporate brand with a new website in October 2024, and earned a comprehensive stack of enterprise-procurement accreditations including Achilles BuildingConfidence, SSIP, ConstructionLine Gold and Cyber Essentials.

Revenue is earned through project-based, fixed-price contracts delivered under JCT frameworks (Standard Building Contracts, Design and Build, XQ 2016), with go-to-market executed via direct B2B sales, tender processes and repeat enterprise relationships. Named blue-chip customers include BMW, Jaguar Land Rover, Aston Martin, REE Automotive, KOITO Europe, Cazoo, and Logicor; no revenue figure is publicly disclosed. The firm owns no proprietary technology platforms and offers no API, software product, or digital channel beyond its corporate website and careers portal.
