“It has to be said there are not many areas of the business where Padgate Services cannot bring their experience to bear and this has ensured we can operate safely, efficiently and show a return on investment by eliminating problems before they become expensive repairs.”

Do you feel like your department could operate more effectively?

We recently consulted with a local business on ways to implement and sustain a 5S improvement programme across their engineering department.

Do you have ongoing problems with minor stops on a piece of equipment?

We recently overhauled and returned to standard a high speed slicer. The result was improved product quality and yield and a reduction in minor stops due to product blockages.

Are you concerned about your exposure to equipment failure?

We recently carried out a critical path analysis to provide evidence to a management team about the critical equipment and level of risk within their business.
