East Mids engineering firm aims for £140m turnover
An engineering business with premises across the East Midlands has reorganised its business as part of a drive to inrease revenue to £140m.
Edwin James Group, which has a presence in Burton, Grantham, Louth and Swadlincote, says it wants to become the leading national engineering services group.
The group, which has launched a new website and brand identity, was established by investment firm Aliter Capital in 2017 and initially acquired Ingen Technical Services then Korrie. This was followed by the acquisition of WT Parker Group, in April 2017 and then PEME, also in 2017.
The company has rationalised its five key businesses into two distinct service offerings: technical services and process services.
Parker Technical Services, comprising of Parker and Korrie, in the north of Scotland, will focus on services related to engineering, facility maintenance, energy and environment. Ingen’s operations will become part of the Parker brand.
Musk Process Services will encompass the design, installation and maintenance of technical assets and systems for manufacturing environments. The asset care and reliability business previously known as PEME now sits as part of Musk.
Edwin James Group chief executive, Derek Smith, said: “Over the last three years, Edwin James Group brought together a selection of businesses which offer complementary technical and facilities services throughout the UK. We are on track to achieve £140m turnover in our first full financial results, and we look forward to continuing our impressive growth.
“Our new simplified structure will encourage collaboration across the business and allow us to explore how we can leverage cross-selling opportunities across our customer base to increase our market share. This will help us achieve our strategic objectives, which includes the ongoing development of our people, expanding our geographic reach and increasing our work within critical engineering environments.”
Edwin James Group hasoffices in Inverness, Thurso, Elgin, Fort William, Glasgow, Burton, Cambridge, Grantham, Louth, Shrewsbury, Slough, Swadlincote and Peterborough.
