International Collaboration
The company has from its establishment created successful collaborations with other
consultants. In 2002 a step was taken to further strengthen the cooperation with the
Danish architects Arkthing K/S when a Letter of Intent was signed between the two
firms.
Moreover, Arkthing has established a successful relationship with its clients as well, in particular foreign identities, such as:
• US Navy – Nato Base, Keflavik Airport
• British Embassy, Reykjavik, Iceland
• German Embassy, Reykjavik, Iceland,
serving these clients for several years.
Environmental Planning
Arkþing emphazises and has implemented environmentally friendly planning in its
projects. Prior to each design stage of a project the environment is carefully evaluated, thus the design reckons the connection between the structure and the environment.
Quality Management
Quality management within the company is based on its organizational structure, division of responsibilities and duties as well as the work procedures employed. For its internal quality control, in particular for handling drawings and other documents effectively the company uses the Conisius® quality management
