Building successful relationships with our clients
In today’s commercial environment, just meeting a
client’s current needs is no longer good enough!
Our aim is to help our clients continue to be successful
by staying ahead of their competitors. We believe the
best way to anticipate their needs is to develop closer
long-term working relationships, enabling interaction at
all levels throughout our companies and providing a
greater depth of commercial understanding and
awareness. In this way we can develop the technology
and services required for tomorrow, helping our clients
maintain their competitive edge in the future.

With UKSkills’ successful bid to host the WorldSkills
competition, UK manufacturing has a great opportunity
to focus on raising vocational skills awareness. London
2011 will highlight the challenges facing manufacturing
and provide a focal point for the development of
engineering talent required to keep UK manufacturing
competitive in world markets. As a key supporter of the
competition since its inception, we are committed to
ensuring that the UK produces the best possible results.
Supporting excellence in the UK manufacturing industry
Involvement between companies is critical. As a Learning
Organisation everyone in the company has personal
development plans and training goals. Throughout the
organisation staff have direct contact with customers to
ensure we understand their needs better.
In order to promote excellence in UK manufacturing we
work proactively with the leading business associations
and educational establishments, supporting and hosting
a wide range of training events and conferences.

We are specialists in providing high-value solutions for

Didactic is to ensure that projects ‘enable’ the client.

or multiply the success without the need for continuing
consultancy support.

of people development
Festo is an engineering and manufacturing company
as well as a training and consulting organisation.
This combination not only enables us to understand

Supporting our customers’ entire value chain
We can identify and address client needs more
comprehensively with complete Customer Solution
packages provided by our application support and
project engineering teams. We believe that working
closely with customers throughout the entire
manufacturing chain – from Engineering, and Procure-
ment to Assembly and Operation – can produce better
“Total Cost of Ownership” results than simply looking at
component cost. Our Customer Solutions service team
of application and project engineers provide a skilled,
flexible and cost-effective “external” resource.

we ensure that costs are kept to a minimum.
Building unique solutions for specific needs
Our pre-pack solutions have minimised supply chain
costs by delivering high volumes of basic products, cost-
effectively. By pre-assembling our products we reduce
