Midlands-based engineering and environmental consultancy BWB has received £250,000 of funding from Finance Birmingham.
BWB, which provides a wide variety of services in the construction, development and property management sectors, has used the funding to strengthen its public sector experience with the acquisition of QMP, a building surveying, project management and quantity surveying firm.
The business operates from seven sites across the country, including Birmingham and Nottingham.

The acquisition of QMP will give it a presence in Northampton and Cambridge.
The funding will also support BWB’s growth plans in Birmingham, allowing it to create 13 new jobs in an office that has already seen growth from six to 45 staff over the past five years.
Paul Collins, group finance director at BWB, said: “Finance Birmingham understood our needs immediately and has been extremely flexible in providing a funding package suitable for all stakeholders.
“It has been critical in enabling us to continue our growth strategy.”
The funding has been provided by Finance Birmingham as part of its £56 million Mezzanine Fund – a pot of money open to growing SMEs from all sectors across the West Midlands and supported by the Regional Growth Fund.
