Overview

We agree that the automotive industry is changing and that this rate of change will continue to increase.

Many engineering contract companies who have positioned themselves to provide a complete capability are now finding that the traditional outsourcing that was bread and butter during the 1980's and early 1990's is no longer required. Instead, manufacturers are looking to companies who can offer specific technologies for incorporation into vehicle projects on a fast track basis in order to gain the competitive edge. The technologies and concepts that the vehicle manufacturers now demand cannot be provided by the services offered by the traditional contract houses.

Grafton Consulting recognises that today's projects need to be resourced quickly and executed efficiently with minimum changes.

Contract engineering resource plays an important role in our industry and offers flexibility and technical capability that otherwise could be difficult to obtain within the time available.

GCL has given considerable time to understanding the sector it serves. It has worked and continues to work with its customers, improving and developing its ability to support increasingly complex engineering activities with high calibre individual engineers and engineering teams.

We have 20 years of experience in providing engineering teams. We understand that if projects are well planned they will be easier to manage and control. Contracts and processes are an integral part of daily practice and routines. However, they require the power of
people to make them work.

GCL's commitment to delivering innovative business solutions is proven. A strong, forward-thinking leadership team ensures we will
be ready and able to support the needs of an ever-changing world.

Our staff works in a productive environment, improving their skills through training and development programmes and achieving satisfaction through career advancement.
