QR_ has been working alongside some of the biggest, most innovative and exciting names in automotive and aerospace for nearly 20 years. We have been there in good times, and been there in bad times. But at no point did our partners stand still, and neither did we. Together, we evolved to overcome challenges, changes and pivots, be that in manufacturing, logistics or working practices.
With International Women's Day just gone, QR_ has been doing what it does best and working the data; 26% female, 24% BAME and 6% LGBTQ across our global teams.
Having started out as contractors, Rob joined forces with his co-founder, Adam Grant to launch Quick Release in 2003. In Rob’s own words they were ‘two Excel types who saw a gap in the market and wanted to create a fun company of like-minded data geeks’. Climb in Consulting host Nick Synott chats with Rob Ferrone and CEO Adam Blomerley about how they set about scaling the firm from a team of four to a global consultancy operating on four continents.
‘Off-the-shelf vs. bespoke BoM’ is the third and final Bill of Materials themed installment in the ‘QR_ Essentials’ series. Drawing on conversations and surveys across large OEMs, scaling challengers and new mobility start-ups, we examine the differing priorities influencing which system is chosen, and at what point manufacturers tend to transition away from off-the-shelf BoM solutions. QR_ have spent well over a million hours authoring, maintaining and conducting rapid and accurate BoM validations for over 100 automotive clients, looking beyond the system to optimise human and managerial processes to further enhance release and order.
PDM professionals from QR_'s Essex and Woking sites joined Migrateful for a cooking social in support of asylum seekers at risk of harm but not quite qualifying for refugee status.
The second in our three-part series for ‘QR_ essentials’, we explore the factors informing and influencing the inevitable compromise between speed and intelligence in BoM design and functionality. QR_ have spent well over a million hours authoring, maintaining and conducting rapid and accurate BoM validations for over 100 automotive clients, looking beyond the system to optimise human and managerial processes to further enhance release and order.
Effective Bill of Materials management is among the most significant influences on the accuracy and speed with which an engineering programme can progress from design to line. QR_ have spent well over a million hours authoring, maintaining and conducting rapid and accurate BoM validations for over 100 automotive clients, looking beyond the system to optimise human and managerial processes to further enhance release and order. The first in a three-article series for ‘QR_ essentials’, we explore what automotive manufacturers look for in a ‘good’ BoM.
