Full Banking & Finance Tender
Project Overview
St Peter’s Girls’ School, in the final stage of its current 10-year Master Plan, is developing a new Gym and Performing Arts Centre on its beautiful school grounds in Stonyfell, aka the “North West Build”.
Industry: Independent Girls’ School
The Challenge
The School is in a strong financial position, however this development required a significant increase in its debt facilities. Through an introduction, St Peter’s Girls engaged Glengyle Finance to seek alternative options from selected financial institutions.
The Solution
Glengyle Finance, working closely with the Principal and Acting Business Director, put together an extensive Request For Proposal (RFP) to three major banks. Requiring a fast turnaround, Glengyle Finance completed the RFP within two weeks. Twelve working days later we received multiple, fully approved offers, all of which exceeded our expectations.
Testimonial
“We engaged Craig from Glengyle Finance to tender finance for a significant new building project at St Peter’s Girls’ School. Craig went above and beyond to understand our school and our existing banking facilities and then prepared meticulous documentation for the banks, all within an incredibly tight timeframe. The results he achieved for us in the tender were outstanding.
Craig’s communication was detailed, timely and professional and included presenting options to the school’s Board of Governors and attending meetings between the banks and the school. He has a deep knowledge of the banking industry and managed the entire process from initial discussions through to negotiations with the banks and recommendations to the school. Craig obtaining full bank approval meant that the school could proceed with appointing a builder and start the project without delays.
We would not hesitate to recommend Craig’s services to other schools and organisations looking to tender for finance.”
