Quantum CAD smashes training record by £25 million at Margam Park.
When given the task to
make £35 million in an hour, Quantum CAD goes £25 million better to
produce nearly £60 million in creative cash!
In this difficult economic environment,
companies face many business challenges. To achieve the most cost
effective results, they need to be able to look internally for the
solution. Welsh based electronic design firm, Quantum CAD ventured to
Margam Park to focus on their most valuable asset – their people.
With 1/3 of their team represents countries outside the UK (Poland,
Russia and USA) communication and teamwork is key to Quantum CAD’s
success. Not only do they have cultural diversity that could create
business obstacles, but managing four different departments ranging
from Engineering to Marketing can also make internal communication a
challenge.
So how does Quantum overcome these potential hurdles to be the growing success we see today?
-Teambuilding and Training
With the help of Training Wales, Quantum CAD dedicated time to increase
team communication, leadership, and enthusiasm. By working through
various activities, their elite team was able to learn more about each
other’s personalities and work techniques resulting in a record
smashing £59.7 million in 37 second! (based on the roller ball
simulation)
Steve Jones, Managing director of Quantum CAD, said: “One of our most
important assets is our people. They’re highly trained, experienced and
knowledgeable individuals. Investing in developing them makes good
business sense. It shows we value them and that feel-good factor
impacts positively throughout the business.”
Since achieving Investors in People in 2008, Quantum CAD continues to
emphasize the importance of its people to the success of the
organization.
“Training is a crucial part of our strategy to grow the business and
help us remain at the forefront of our sector. Our ultimate aim is to
become the number one centre of excellence for the electronics
industry. IiP has helped us raise the profile of the company, attract
superior quality staff and enhance our credibility with customers and
competitors,” Steve Jones adds.
After 15 years in business, Quantum CAD has established themselves as a
major contender in the PCB and electronic design community throughout
UK and Europe. Its clients are drawn from various sectors including
defence, aerospace, medical, telecommunications, and automotive. The
firm has attracted major clients including Rolls Royce, Bosch, Sony,
Panasonic, Bose, HP, Ford, McLaren, Tyco and QinetiQ and is looking to
further expand into new markets throughout Europe.
Quantum CAD looks forward to watching the effects of their team
building experience. They are confident that the effort out of the
office will create positive numbers in the office.
“ We know £60 million (in real cash) in less than a minute is a bit of
a stretch, but through a stronger team bond, increased communication
and more focused company goals, we are without doubt that we are on the
climb of this roller coaster economic climate” adds Heather Norbury,
Marketing Manager.
