Interaction’s 25th Year: A Platform for the Future N ot many workplace design and build companies have 25 years’ worth of experience, and even fewer can boast a team of talented people that all share the motivation to deliver great results. It is this combination of experience, people and passion that has got the business to where it is today. There is no growth without stability 25 years in the industry brings a host of valuable knowledge and experience. Practice certainly makes perfect – and Interaction have perfected every step of the journey, from building amazing relationships with clients to delivering snag free projects. Investing in the right people has also furthered the company’s stability; each and every member of the team stands out in terms of energy, creativity and hard work. Individuals grow in tandem with the company, which creates a shared ethos, as well as embodied knowledge and experience that is maintained within the business. Thanks to the combination of perfected processes and an evolving team, Interaction’s 25th year marks the merging of continued success with optimism for the future. Choice and the route to success A stable basis and continued success facilitate choice. This provides the ability to employ the highest calibre of people and to work on a varied array of projects; two factors that will help the business to grow further. In the past year alone, the team has significantly grown and delivered some amazing projects as well as delivering them snag free, something Interaction is very passionate about. One of which includes The Castle project for money.co.uk, which won Office Refurbishment of the Year at Insider’s 2017 Property Awards. It all comes back to the people Growth, stability and success would not be possible without the relationships that lie at the heart of Interaction. This includes the affinity between colleagues, suppliers, sub-contractors and clients, which helps to facilitate the delivery of consistently good work – and therefore delighted clients! As a people business, it’s inevitable that those who work hard are rewarded. Aside from working on some extraordinary projects or in the unique Bath studio, there are frequent social events. In March the office was transformed into an exclusive underground jazz club to celebrate the company’s 25th birthday, and this year’s AGM took the team 412 miles north to a Scottish castle. Looking towards the future With the 25th year marking a point of significant change for the team, there is a sense of new-found confidence to do even greater things. This will revolve around more choices; to choose even more talent to join the company and to extend the reach of work with larger projects in new and further afield locations. Founder Paul Haskins summarises how “the experience and hard work of the past quarter century have truly been amalgamated in our 25th year, which now acts as a stable springboard for further growth and success”.
