Topic: A Meeting of Minds

Demolition contractors and drillers and sawers work in largely similar fields; often work side-by-side and for the same clients; and share the same hopes, fears and challenges.  And yet, despite their many synergies, there appears to be a divide between the two sides of this particular coin.

To help facilitate some meaningful dialogue between the two closely-associated sectors, we're calling upon both sides to enter into some meaningful discussion on how the two sectors might work more effectively together in the future.

The IDE's John Woodward has extended an open invitation to D-Drill's Julie White for a meeting to exorcise the demons of the past and to put the two sectors on a friendly and co-operative footing for the future.

So, regardless of which side of the fence you sit upon, please join this discussion and let us (and, more importantly, them) know where each sector could do better to accommodate the needs of the other and to address any misunderstandings and mis-communications of the past.

We look forward to receiving your comments, input and suggestions.

Re: A Meeting of Minds

I have emailed Julie this morning to suggest a meeting next week when we both have a suitable date in our diaries and I have suggested that Demolition News attend the meeting and report it on the forum.

Re: A Meeting of Minds

For the record, I would be glad to attend, record and facilitate in any way that I can.
