Background Notes: 
 
Baqus is a national building consultancy and quantity surveying group offering 
construction cost consultancy, project management and building surveying 
services to clients across the UK. The Group works in a number of business 
sectors including: leisure, hospitality, health, education, residential, 
commercial, transport, emergency and judicial services and conservation. Clients 
include commercial companies, developers, banks/funders, local authorities, 
central government, NHS, Housing Associations, builders and contractors. 
 
The Quantity Surveying Market in the UK, estimated to be worth in excess of GBP1 
billion, is highly fragmented and dominated by a small number of major players, 
which the Baqus Group Directors believe make it ripe for consolidation. Since 
the Group's admission to AIM, they have been pursuing a strategy of acquiring 
small to medium sized Quantity Surveying practices across the country, the most 
recent of which is Nigel Rose Group. Previous activity includes the acquisition 
of Sworn King and Partners in 2008. Once acquired, the practices are 
incorporated into the wider Group with a particular emphasis on exploiting 
opportunities for operational synergies with existing business units.
