Katana Engineering's key to their sucess is the ability to drive cost out the manufacture of precision components whilst keeping the same high quality and engineering standards. Having worked in the aerospace industry for over 15 years the team attained the highly coveted C.I.P.S accreditation in 2009 - a testament to their expertise which they bring to each assignment
Having overseen budgets in excess of £4m, they have a keen commercial awareness that enables them to deliver business returns on investments and projects. Thier experience in corporate management, meanwhile, allows Katana to offer proven leadership ability including excellent motivational skills. Personable and professional, Katana are comfortable working at all levels within an organisation. Of course, the best recommendation can only come from experience, as evinced by this testimonial provided by one of Katana's former business associates:
"I believe that without the introduction of the fast response supplier framework and perhaps even more importantly the support and willingness of your team to underpin the new process the programme would not have been achieved on time and to budget. You sucessfully changed the traditional unstructured approach that was in place before hand, and implemented an appropriate supplier selection process and also for raising orders with the appropriate governance and controls.
The initial selection of suppliers and your role out went well with all the suppliers stepping up to the concept and the fast response objectives you outlined however the drive from yourself with the selected key suppliers did prove the process and indeed I believe we are now seeing lead times that have not been achieved from suppliers in this sustained way in the past.
I would recommend your input wherever urgent and random demands occur for manufacturing that cannot be achieved 'in house'.
Well done and keep it up."
