News: DavyMarkham joins Nuclear AMRC
Sheffield engineering group, DavyMarkham has signed up to become the first Tier Two member of the new Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre.
The Nuclear AMRC provides advanced research and development in manufacturing and engineering, based on the same collaborative model as the established University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre with Boeing, to help manufacturing companies prepare to help build the new generation of nuclear power stations in the UK. The Nuclear AMRC will also help provide member companies with training and other business support.
The Nuclear AMRC has a two-tier membership structure, based on companies' position in the supply chain. DavyMarkham now gains access to a wealth of resources to help build its presence in this civil nuclear supply chain.
Kevin Parkin, Managing Director of DavyMarkham, said: "This is a unique opportunity for all suppliers to the UK's new nuclear build program to align their businesses and operations to the high standards which are demanded by the industry. By developing new manufacturing, process and control techniques, the research facility will be able to provide companies with a competitive position with which to become world-class players in the new nuclear build.
"We are delighted to be working with Keith and his team, and are sure that the successes he has made at the AMRC will be replicated very quickly in the Nuclear AMRC. We are pleased to be a part of this exciting opportunity."
Professor Keith Ridgway, Research Director of the Nuclear AMRC, said: "We look forward to working closely with DavyMarkham to help them build their capabilities to supply the nuclear industry. In the UK alone, around £40 billion is going to be spent on new-build nuclear reactors in the near future. UK-based firms need to understand the opportunities and requirements of supplying goods and services to the nuclear market, and we can help give them the support that they need."
