Automotive Manufacturing Machinery
Foreword Now that you have started to read this please continue, I would like to give you an insight to myself before you continue your journey through this brochure to hopefully gain a feel for our company. I started my career in engineering in 1979 as an E.I.T.B mechanical apprentice with S.U Butec, a BL Cars group company which was later taken over by a Japanese multinational automotive component manufacturer. My career progressed within the company ultimately becoming a senior machine design engineer for the Advanced Engineering department, responsible for machine and automation design, production method improvements and new product introduction. I gained vast experience travelling to many parts of the world including Japan, India, UAE and most European countries, visiting and working with engineering companies on specific projects. In 1993 I founded EBS which has grown to become a successful specialist engineering company that Designs and Manufactures Production Machinery, Automated and Robotic Systems for various market sectors from Automotive to Medical with a team of experienced engineers and apprentices. I give my time past and present to support industry as : Board Member and Director of the Welsh Automotive Forum Chair Mechanical & Electrical Sector Strategy Group U.K SEMTA The Automotive Academy Curriculum Steering Group U.K Member SEMTA regional council Member EEF regional advisory board Chair Industry Wales Business Growth Proactive Partnership with Coleg Sir Gar for Apprentice Training Advisory Board Member Coleg Sir Gar I believe that business should be conducted in a fair and reasonable way which will allow all involved to prosper for the long term. We do not take short term decisions and view relationships with our clients to be long term partnerships. We continually strive for improvement in all areas of the organisation and the industry in which we operate, In particular I have a passion for Apprentice development and training, having started my career there. I hope you will continue to read on and that someday we will meet. Michael Evans Managing Director CMgr FCMI
Our Vision is Simple Be Authentic
What we do We help our clients make products. EBS Automation is a specialist machine design and automation company with the intention of making your life as easy as possible. We listen, absorb and understand your need then turn it into a machine or automated system from concept, design and manufacture through to installation at your site. Each project we undertake is uniquely tailored to meet your needs. Our team will visit you to scope your requirement before returning to our offices where the initial scope is interrogated and converted into a concept proposal. The concept proposal will be discussed further with you to ensure our original scoping and interpretation is correct and that nothing has changed or come to light. To move the project forward our EBS Automation 14 Stage phase gated project management system will be used, taking the project from start to finish through pre-determined stages, ensuring that it follows a consistent path and sets relevant review points for you to be part of the process.
