Atkins is involved in the planning, design and enabling of complex capital projects. We lead the way across a diverse range of disciplines, from architects designing the world’s tallest buildings to improving the efficiency of major public transport systems. As the problems facing our clients become more complex, the solutions delivered by Atkins become more and more innovative.

Atkins is the largest engineering consultancy in the UK, the largest multidisciplinary consultancy in Europe and the world’s eighth largest design firm. Our size brings significant value to our clients, allowing us to harness an unrivalled pool of creative, professional people to produce outstanding solutions to challenging problems.

The simplest articulation of what we do is 'Plan, Design, Enable'

Plan - the challenges facing our clients are multidimensional, often because of the increasingly complex modern environment. From cost and risk planning, feasibility studies and logistics, to impact assessments and stakeholder engagement activity, we plan every aspect of our clients' projects.

Design - Atkins designs intellectual capital such as management systems and business processes. We also design physical structures such as office towers, schools, bridges and highways. Whatever we design, we apply the same passion and creativity combined with rigorous quality standards.

Enable - our clients choose Atkins because they want to focus on their core operations. They entrust us to look after the management of projects, people and issues - ensuring that deadlines are met, costs are controlled and success is delivered.
