where we have worked
We have, and are, working with large and medium sized companies in the UK and mainland Europe. These include sectors such as:
- Petrochemical
- Pharmaceutical
- Automotive
- Food and Drink
- Health Products
- Nuclear
A number of structural developments in these sectors have emerged in recent years, and are making businesses take an even greater interest in the performance of their asset base, including:
- Competition and margin erosion leading to mergers and take-overs
- Development of global manufacturing strategies including off-shore manufacture
- Rationalisation of over capacity leading to facility consolidation
- Increased automation and technology used to drive competitiveness
- Changing patterns of customer demand requiring rapid manufacturing response with flexible and late customisation
- Increasing buyer power concentration
- Regulatory driven improvements in safety and environmental standards
