Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce invited Jackie our Business Development Manager to contribute to the Business Bulletin for April 2023.
What should people know?
Sandaig Engineering offers tailored QA/QC Consultancy solutions to the energy industry. We deliver strategic and operational quality consultancy within supply chain, engineering, and project management. Our consultants listen carefully to our customers, making sure we understand in detail what they need. Then we can offer a tailored solution that is suitable for their business.
What’s the biggest mistake companies make?
Companies that fail to understand what their market is and who their customers are will waste resources. Having a clear strategy to understand your market and customer base will allow companies to effectively use their resources to optimise customer engagement and add value within the organisation. There are many business development organisations promoting industry conferences and the like. However it is crucial to be selective about where to spend resources, time and ensure follow up.
What’s your top tip?
Quality Management can appear complex at times however the PDCA Plan-Do-Check-Act approach can be scaled for both simple and complex businesses. It is a four-stage approach for continually improving and problem-solving processes products or services. It involves systematically testing possible solutions, assessing the results, and implementing the ones that have been shown to work.
In September 2022 Sandaig Engineering celebrated their 4th birthday, Happy Birthday to us!
In October 2018 we were awarded our first contract. This was with Apache Corporation North Sea with a scope to review the QA/QC and HSE processes throughout the full supply chain lifecycle and manage day to day QA/QC activities.
Fast forward four years, we still support Apache and have a long-term Master Service Agreement with them. See below for some metrics, highlights and achievements.
Many thanks to the forward-looking folks at Apache who believed in us and took a chance.
Sandaig Engineering took part in the WEST business programme which sought to prepare organisations for transition into the growing offshore wind sector. This support was bespoke and needs led, helping businesses understand the offshore wind market and enter with confidence. OWGP undertook a Case Study of Sandaig Engineering which provides other organisations with an understanding of the services provided. Please follow the link below to view.
Sandaig Engineering are delighted to be attending ADIPEC Exhibition and Conference and joining the Scotland Pavilion supported by Scottish Development International. We will be joining other Scottish businesses, active in the energy transition sector, to take the opportunity to exhibit our services, understand the market and forge partnerships for global growth. Being part of one of the world’s most influential energy events at ADIPEC 31 October – 3 November, in Abu Dhabi will allow us time to make connections, build relationships and share our knowledge and expertise with other companies who value quality within the energy sector.
Sandaig Engineering are excited to have won our first renewables contract. We will be providing consultancy services to Kinetic Renewable Services and look forward to working with Laura Mackie.
In 2018 when we first set up the Sandaig Engineering the energy transition was well underway and moving into the renewables sector was high on our agenda. Thankfully there is much support out there for SME’s and we have worked with Lynne McIntosh-GrieveOffshore Renewable Energy Catapult , Paul O’Brien @deepwind , Sharon ChanXodus.
As the energy transition accelerates we know the synergies between oil and gas and offshore wind will create great opportunities across the North East. Onwards and upwards! #offshorewind#energytransition#renewables
