"By working with Aerogistics we have won work packages that we would not have been considered for. We have been able to concentrate on our core strengths and leave all the project management and supply chain issues to Aerogistics.
The Cluster Development Programme has greatly improved our competitiveness especially in planning & control, purchasing and inventory management."
Miles Tudor, Managing Director,
North West Precision Ltd, Birkenhead
"Aerogistics has successfully deployed an ERP system into RD which manages both our A.O.G. spares orders and steady-state orders.
The Cluster Development Programme has improved our supplier relationships, improved schedule adherence, reduced finished goods inventory, reduced WIP and improved machine utilisation by 28%. We are now in a much stronger position to bid for new work packages"
Ron Daly, Managing Director,
RD Precision Ltd, Queensferry
"Our relationship with Aerogistics started in 2003 when they helped us to select and deploy our new planning and control system. The system is now fully operational and we have attracted many work packages on the back of it.
Using the same resources, we now have much more capacity and our schedule adherence has remained greater than 99%. As part of the Aerogistics cluster we have also been given an inroad to the lucrative aftermarket and have worked directly for an Airline and MRO."
Neil Gouldby, Managing Director,
Aero Fabrications Ltd
"SMS and Aerogistics have forged a strong relationship over the past 12 months which has resulted in a lucrative contract from a major aerospace company.
The Aerogistics Cluster Development Programme has been focused on the configuration and fine tuning of our MRP system. We have over 98% schedule adherence, improved our throughput by 60% and reduced WIP by 23%."
Tony McGilveray, Managing Director,
SMS Engineering Ltd
"Before working with Aerogistics we had never worked directly for the Aerospace Industry despite our high-end precision manufacturing capability.
As part of the Cluster Development Programme, Aerogistics has developed our Quality Management Systems and planning & control capability in line with aerospace requirements. We are now bidding on work packages that we have never had access to in the past. Our relationship with Aerogistics is strategically important and we are fully committed to the benefits of clustering."
