Are you a bit tired of the standard, old-fashioned way of doing things in the construction industry? Do you get deep satisfaction from making things run more efficiently using a good dose of common sense and maybe a bit of technology? Have you always cared about the importance of proper planning and the connection between the schedule and the real, day-to-day delivery of the job?

Have you ever wanted to work a bit more flexibly but still be hands-on in construction and improving the industry? Sounds like a dream. Well, it isn’t. It’s quite real! Read on.

We are Laminar Projects!

But in case you haven’t, we’re a high-end project management consultancy and tech developer with a focus on upgrading the way construction projects are delivered. Improving construction strengthens the very foundation of human civilisation. We bring transparency and control to projects through a pragmatic mix of the latest tech, our own processes, and a big dose of common sense.

We then take our deep understanding of these projects and we invest heavily into developing the digital solutions that anyone can use to deliver their projects better. The core of all this is our true secret sauce: our people. We only recruit the very best, both in capability and personality. We’re deeply focused on designing a new type of organisation that’s optimised for the flourishing of the people in the team first and foremost.

People who join us develop fast as a whole person in ways they never imagined. This approach has allowed us to grow from just two people in 2017 to over 220 today.
