GSPK Electronics, a specialist in contract electronics manufacturing (CEM), has received a certificate for their materials planning and supply chain by Yorkshire Forward.

GSPK Electronics has received a certificate for the successful completion of a review of their materials planning and supply chain under the Yorkshire Forward 'Competitive Edge' programme For over 40 years GSPK Electronics has been a leading specialist in contract electronics manufacturing, providing a full range of electronics outsourcing services from prototyping, full printed circuit board assembly, test and distribution

The project with Yorkshire Forward was undertaken by the company in response to tough competition from manufacturers in the Far East and Eastern Europe and already benefits from the project are being realised by the company.

Keith Walker, Managing Director says "GSPK Electronics has seen tremendous growth over the last 18 months, which has required investment throughout all areas of the business, from machinery to recruitment.

The collaboration with Yorkshire Forward has given GSPK Electronics the opportunity to re-evaluate our supply chain during these times of growth and readjustment.

This has resulted in the implementation of a new materials management program and measures to manage manufacturing capacity.

These are exciting times for GSPK Electronics and by realigning our processes with the support of Yorkshire Forward, we are confident that we can retain our unrivalled position within the industry".

After completion of the project the company has seen an increase in sales by over GBP1m, GBP200,000 in investment in new equipment and have already recruited a new purchasing director and supply chain manager as well as over 10 other qualified staff to meet continued growth of the company.
