These are only a very small selection of case studies, for demonstration purposes only. All cases are genuine but in line with our strict policy on non-disclosure we always never reveal the name of a customer. All the systems we develop are often unique to that particular contract because we find that most contracts are unique in one way or another. Our systems are always designed to work around your problems and the problems we find (not the same thing by any means) and by removing all the problems you have you will be a very happy customer of ours with a guaranteed workable, real life solution.
Read the case studies to see just how we solved some really difficult problems:
CASE STUDY 5
We were asked to do the ground work on the reasons why the cleaning in one area of the Royal Navy wasn’t working very well and to suggest ways in which it could be made much more effective.
PROBLEM: like all navies, the Royal Navy is bound by many regulatory issues, but equally no more so than land based ones. Increasing need for awareness of health and safety regulations as well as even stricter environmental regulations on disposal, storage and use of detergents, plus the shortage of people willing to consider doing the cleaning puts some serious constraints on any system developed. In many ways there are less constraints in a food factory where cleaning is required to be at a very high standard.
SOLUTION: we were able to examine in detail the reasons for the problems and these were not quite what our customer had anticipated. This is very often the case and this is where we are very useful to our customers. As in this case, management consultants had been used to suggest reasons for the problems but their reports all lack the one thing that we alone can, and do, give our customers the fact that we have had so much practical experience in cleaning and problem solving around cleaning, that we are able to look at problems from a practical “hands on” angle and give answers which actually work in real life. These may not be what is expected but the problems are also often not really what the customer is expecting it could come from an entirely different direction and we find out by examination, audits and surveys just what the problem is and the best and most cost effective way of solving it. All the answers we give have one thing in common: they work and they are guaranteed to work.
But our knowledge and experience is far wider than the case studies would show:
There is no cleaning problem anywhere, we can’t solve and here’s the reason why:
All our solutions come from:
- A detailed knowledge of regulatory requirements and their interpretation
- Thorough knowledge of detergent chemistry and surface materials including coatings, being used in any situation
- Detailed knowledge of surface soiling and its removal and disposal
- Practical experience of developing and using lean process, quality management systems and kaizen applications within a cleaning system
- Waste disposal management methods and treatments and their impact on the environment
But our experience is far wider than the case studies would show
- Foundries and industrial shop floors and machinery restoration
- Boilers, tank cleaning and confined space work
- Process plant and critical cleaning, cleaning to high risk standards
- Retail and domestic
- Janitorial and office
- Construction (and construction in food industry)
- Food industry
- Hospitality industry
- Computer and clean rooms
- Marine
- Antique surfaces and delicate surface cleaning and restoration methods
