Both partnerships are tapping into the company’s early-stage consultancy and design for manufacturing support before following the production journey from tool design, manufacture and try-out to process automation and volume production.<\/p>\n
The early wins reinforce the new strategic growth plan outlined after the MBO and has accelerated the firm’s move towards \u00a312 million revenues by 2029.<\/p>\n Brandauer chief executive Rowan Crozier said: “This move will transition us from a sub-contract stamping specialist to a one-stop partner which can scale precision metal and plastic assemblies.<\/p>\n “This is a long-term vision that will maximise recent investments in consultancy, design and automation capability and we are already seeing demand from existing and new clients to tap into this wraparound service.<\/p>\n “Automotive is a natural home for what we do as it demands precision components and, with the drive for electrification, is looking to push the boundaries of innovation.<\/p>\n “Contracts with Ford and the Eastern European supplier give us confidence that what we are offering is in demand, a demand that is also transferrable to multiple precision sectors, including defence, aerospace and power generation and management. The MBO was a massive moment in our 164-year history.<\/p>\n “Now is the time to write the next chapter that will keep world class manufacturing in Birmingham<\/a> for another century.”<\/p>\n Employing 67 people at its Newtown facility, Brandauer has made history with the Ford project, manufacturing a progression tool for the first time.<\/p>\n This includes integrated automation to stamp and bond stacks for electric vehicle applications. A full tool is now being manufactured and, once this is complete, collaborative learning will be shared across both businesses.<\/p>\n Mr Crozier added: “For Brandauer, these new contracts aren’t just a symbol of new business. It’s a symbol of a new beginning.<\/p>\n “Both companies have recognised our expertise in multiple sectors of the process and this has ensured better communication and faster lead times by cutting out third-party suppliers so the end-to-end projects can be completed under one roof.”<\/p>\n <\/a><\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" … into this wraparound service.
