Services

Three jobs.
Done properly.

Every engagement sits across the life of the system: getting it in, keeping it running, and making it run better than the day it was handed over.

Install

Project execution

Mechanical and electrical installation crews and supervision for integrator-led projects, from first steel to handover.

  • Conveyor and MHE installation
  • Site supervision and subcontractor control
  • Commissioning support and punch-list close-out
  • Handover packs maintenance teams can use
Maintain

Contract maintenance

Resident and mobile technicians who keep automated sites at availability, under your service agreement or alongside it.

  • Planned and preventive maintenance
  • Breakdown response and fault finding
  • Resident site technicians and peak-season cover
  • Spares, condition monitoring and CMMS discipline
Improve

Maintenance & reliability

Senior engineering input to lift performance on systems that are running but not running well.

  • Failure analysis and bad-actor elimination
  • Maintenance strategy and PM optimisation
  • Availability and MTTR improvement programs
  • Lifecycle and upgrade planning
Who we work with

Built for the people who own the uptime.

We fit into existing contracts rather than competing with them. You keep the client relationship; we put capable people on the floor.

Integrators & OEMs

Systems integrators

Install labour and supervision when your own crews are stretched, and a maintenance partner for the service agreement after go-live.

Condition monitoring

Predictive maintenance providers

Hands on the tools to act on the alarms. Your platform finds the fault; our technicians fix it and close the loop in the CMMS.

Distribution & fulfilment

Warehouse operators

Site maintenance for DCs and fulfilment centres where an hour of downtime means missed trucks and missed customers.

Manufacturing

Production sites

Packaging, palletising and end-of-line automation support for manufacturers running lean engineering teams.

How an engagement runs

No surprises.

Clear scope, the right people, and reporting that tells you what is actually happening on site.

Walk the site

We see the system, the contract and the current failure history before we quote anything.

Scope it tight

Fixed deliverables, named people, agreed response times. What is in and out is written down.

Mobilise

Inducted, competent technicians on site, working to your safety system and permit process.

Report and improve

Regular reporting on availability, faults and open actions, with recommendations you can act on.

Per
Ardua

The name comes from the RAF motto Per Ardua ad Astra, through adversity to the stars. It is where our founder learned the trade: weapons systems, where maintenance done properly is the only acceptable standard.
