Signature Industries is part of the Digital Angel Corporation
in the USA, turning over £15m per annum. Through its subsidiary Clifford and Snell,
the company sells alarms and beacons used in the oil and gas industries in specialist
applications as well as Beacons for the British Army. The manufacturing
of their product range was spread over many suppliers and they needed to consolidate
in order to revitalise their product | |
range and reduce their cost base. Signature were looking
for a high ‘value added’ service supplier who would proactively manage the
whole manufacturing process. HBC was selected. They project managed the
transfer of all existing tooling to the sheerness factory. A comprehensive assessment
was undertaken and quality processes were put in place prior to manufacturing
commencing. | | “They’ve
been instrumental in driving costs down and we plan to build on this success by
transferring more work from other suppliers... to HBC.” M.
