CHAIRMAN'S
STATEMENT (1 of 2)
Universal Engineering Company (Charlestown)
Limited has been in business some 50 years and in stark contrast
to the industrys downward trend over these years, we have
provided continued growth and employment. Two of our many strengths
are our ability to perform in niche markets and to stay flexible,
despite becoming a larger organisation and the pressures we all
feel from increased competition.
Continued investment in equipment and processes,
plus our demonstration to our employees of their value, has created
a stable and productive workforce. Investment takes many forms,
and Universal Engineering Company (Charlestown) Limited considers
training, clear internal communications and systems as important
as tools and machinery.
The current structure of the company with
its four divisions is providing increased opportunities for them
to trade individually in different markets as well as adding value
to each other. For instance, Technical Services attracts enquiries
from many sectors outside of military and aerospace, the principle
domain of the engineering divisions.
Consumer products, telecommunications,
boat building, automotive industries all require technical support
with software and printed manuals. Our expertise in reverse engineering
and carrying out post design studies is eminently exportable to
many or these markets. Our Line Scan division is one of only a
handful of Kodak accredited document archival companies in the
UK able to offer a comprehensive document copy, conversion and
storage facility. next
