Don’t get caught short of capacity. Strong rebound for UK economy.

Through 2020 and early 2021, materials and equipment was easy to get hold, plenty of stock and deals to be done. Now, lead times for materials and equipment are starting to show signs of pressure. For the UK manufacturing sector, the growth figures are great news but to avoid missing out on new orders, contracts and growth in general, decisions may have to made sooner rather than later in ordering raw materials, equipment and staffing. Otherwise companies could be overstretched or falling behind by the end of the year.

Many companies have reported the breathing space over the last year by not running at 110% all the time has been a relief, less chaotic and more cost efficient. If you’re not careful, these days are set to return, careful planning will avoid many of the pitfalls of running to maximum capacity.
