Lancashire firm reports export successA company based in the north-west of England has reported it is planning to export its products around the world.

InfoServe365 is headquartered in Blackburn, Lancashire and specialises in solutions designed to enhance manufacturing efficiency, including its new business tool AssetManager.

The firm recently revealed it is now taking its lean operations management products overseas in order to assist companies in identifying potential improvements to plant productivity.

It was founded five years ago by Michael Hill and Adrian West, two engineers from the region who believed there was a gap in the market for a new monitoring and reporting system to boost efficiency without requiring a significant outlay of capital.

The pair of specialists created parent firm Optima Control Solutions in 1995 and used the experience they gathered in the field of drive control technology to move into the collection and analysis of managed data.

"Both Adrian and I have spent a great deal of time in industry, we have a passion for its survival and indeed its growth and we enjoy doing what we do," Mr Hill explained.

InfoServe365 recently created and installed a bespoke system to improve the operational equipment efficiency of a laminating machine used by packaging specialist Camvac at its Thetford site in Norfolk.ADNFCR-3058-ID-19843568-ADNFCR
