The company’s highly trained team of over 70 technicians and their well-being is a priority – and this was a strong driver behind Douglas Calibration Services’ decision to adopt LOGiCAL. “As much as we needed to streamline our processes, improve efficiency, and make it easier to generate calibration certificates, it was even more important for us to take the pressure off our technicians, who were drowning in paperwork,” Richard says. He estimates that the technicians’ workload has been reduced by 30–40% thanks to LOGiCAL. ## Reduce your workload by 30% with LOGiCAL Douglas Calibration Services reduces technicians’ workload and stress with Beamex LOGiCAL [Get your free demo](https://resources.beamex.com/logical-get-started) ![Calibration Software - Cloud-based calibration software Beamex LOGiCAL](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2020/06/LOGiCAL-photo-v17.jpg) ## A little peace of mind goes a long way With such a large volume of calibrations, it’s easy to imagine things slipping between the cracks and being forgotten. When was that instrument due for calibration? Is the reference standard I’m using in date and certified? Once again, LOGiCAL comes to the rescue when these concerns arise. “We perform around 100 calibrations a month for one of our larger clients, and before LOGiCAL we had to manually track the recalibration due dates on a spreadsheet,” Richard remembers. “Now, LOGiCAL does all this work for us with its ‘instruments due’ feature, so we never miss a date. ## Read the full Douglas Calibration Services case story [Download the customer case story as PDF](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2023/02/beamex-case-story-douglas-calibration-services-eng.pdf) ## A helping hand is always available Beamex and Douglas Calibration have walked the path towards paperless calibration hand in hand from the start. During the transition to LOGiCAL, Beamex convened monthly meetings to discuss any issues or queries, and regular feedback from the team at Douglas Calibration Services has led to the implementation of a host of new features and updates. “The software itself also has a built-in help center, so if one of our people needs assistance they can ask a Beamex expert for on-the-fly support. We’ve always received prompt responses to these types of queries,” Richard says. ## Watch the video summary ### Discover more customer case stories ![Whitetower energy, Beamex case story](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2026/01/exeter--960x720.jpg) Case story ### [Whitetower Energy – Secure reliable, stable power generation](https://www.beamex.com/about-us/case-stories/whitetower/) Read how Whitetower Energy secures reliable, stable power generation for the UK grid with the Beamex calibration ecosystem. ![REE Automotive - BRINGING A GROUNDBREAKING EV PLATFORM TO LIFE with Beamex](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2025/12/reewinter-2-960x1440.jpg) Case story ### [REE Automotive – Bringing a groundbreaking EV platform to life](https://www.beamex.com/about-us/case-stories/ree-automotive/) Read how the Beamex Ecosystem is helping to bring a groundbreaking EV platform to life for REE Automotive. ![Beckwood MC6-Ex and Calibration pumps case story](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2025/11/beckwood-image-4-960x1280.jpg) Case story ### [Beckwood Onsite Services – Engineering excellence with the Beamex calibration ecosystem](https://www.beamex.com/about-us/case-stories/beckwood/) Read how Beckwood can deliver engineering excellence on every single job with the Beamex calibration ecosystem. ![Nestlé Purina - Site de Veauche](https://www.beamex.com/app/uploads/2023/05/siteveauchenestle-purina-960x288.jpg) Case story ### [Nestlé Purina insources calibrations](https://www.beamex.com/about-us/case-stories/nestle-purina/) Nestlé Purina is a global leader in the agri-food market, particularly in the pet food market.
