BES are delighted to have been selected to undertake the full design up to RIBA stage 4 of a new multimillion pound production facility for a world-leading medical equipment manufacturer. Our client specialises in advanced wound management and surgical devices and this investment will allow and support the company's growth. The client's existing manufacturing process is at the end of its serviceable life and must be replaced to ensure a continued supply of adhesive used in their wound management products. The process is also extremely operator-intensive with many time consuming activities.
We are delighted to announce that Steve Marsh, Managing Director and founder of BES, was named Business Person of the Year at the Rochdale Business Awards hosted at Rochdale Town Hall on 10th November, 2017.
Our project team, along with AstraZeneca's site team, recently celebrated 500,000 hours safely worked on the Macclesfield Packing and Logistics Project. Congratulations on reaching this great milestone!

The engineering industry is currently suffering a skills shortage as there is a lack of young people entering the sector. According to reports, to meet demand UK businesses will require over 186,000 people with engineering skills every year from 2017 to 2024. Could increasing awareness of apprenticeships help solve the skills shortage? Here, Josh Collins, our mechanical design engineer, answers questions about his experiences as an apprentice and the benefits of choosing this route into engineering.
