Summary
With the Beamex calibration ecosystem, UK-based service company Beckwood Onsite Services can deliver engineering excellence on every single job. Beamex hardware and software helps this pioneering business provide world-class calibration services to some of the UK’s biggest operators in sectors such as oil & gas, power generation, pharmaceuticals and steel.
Engineering excellence through a better way to calibrate
Beckwood Onsite Services (Beckwood) has a long and distinguished history in the field of electrical, control and instrumentation services and is a trusted partner to major players in the power, chemical, steel, oil & gas, and heavy engineering sectors across the UK. Its onsite instrumentation and control services, including calibration, are delivered by a professional team of 12 field technicians.
Beckwood is guided by the goal of delivering engineering excellence in every job it does – from complex long-term projects with multiple services and stakeholders, to individual calibration contracts on single sites. Guided by this philosophy, when the time came to refresh Beckwood’s calibration hardware and software, Managing Director Richard Hotchin and Project Director Peter Stiles already knew the direction they were likely to head in.


Beamex opens doors to new business
Beckwood has long been a forerunner in the adoption of process automation and digital tools and has even developed its own in-house digital work management system. As a leading provider of products and services that support fully digital calibration processes, Beamex was the natural choice for the company.
Having Beamex as a partner not only makes everyday work easier, but it also acts as a valuable calling card that attracts new customers. “We have won business purely because we use Beamex products,” highlights Hotchin. “When our people show up at a site with Beamex devices in their hands the customer immediately sees that we know what we are doing and has confidence that the job is going to be done properly and efficiently. In a nutshell, Beamex demonstrates our commitment to engineering excellence.”

A bright green future in store
Beckwood is growing quickly, establishing a strong position in the highly competitive process industry service segment across the UK and beyond. Hotchin and Stiles agree that the Beamex ecosystem has a critical role to play in taking the business to the next level.
The company recently purchased a Beamex FB Temperature Dry Block for calibrating temperature sensors and loops in combination with their MC6-Ex units. Furthermore, all their Beamex solutions are now protected by comprehensive Beamex Care Plans covering annual recalibration, repairs, and more.
