New partnership with
Napier University
ASC Limited has recently begun a 'Knowledge Transfer Partnership' with Edinburgh Napier University. As regulations are tightening, scaffold design drawings and calculations are required in more and more cases. The KTP seeks to address this by embedding engineering expertise in the company. A KTP Associate will lead the project, working on a day to day basis in the company's main offices in Edinburgh, gaining practical scaffold construction guidance from the company's experienced staff and engineering expertise from colleagues at the university.
Knowledge Transfer Partnership
A ‘Knowledge Transfer Partnership’ enables companies of any size to access additional scientific, engineering or management knowledge and expertise from universities and research organisations, and to import new techniques and technologies into their businesses.
Knowledge Transfer Partnership:
The outcomes
One of the main outcomes of the KTP is the development of bespoke software to streamline the process of generating design drawings and calculations.
With in-house engineering capability, the company will be able to sustain their current growth in the scaffolding industry. This enables faster response times for projects which require design, and facilitates the company to undertake more technically challenging projects.
