Neil Gidlow - Alstom Transport

" Alstom Chester have been using IDM Engineering for a number of years, we have found them not only helpful but proactive, helping us to reduce costs and improve design issues, quality and deliveries have always been at the higher end of our monitoring system and we look forward to using them in the future."

Colin Burton - Norbert Dentressangle

"The responsible for maintaining high standards of efficiency and production for the chemical drumming facility at the above address is a task that has been made significantly easier for me due to the continued assistance I receive from IDM Engineering. They maintain an accurate record of my schedules and carry out all work to a high standard.

Unfortunately the business I manage does not allow for extended breakdowns and IDM provide me with a quick response on all breakdown activities with skilled workmanship and clean and tidy standards of work.

IDM provide me with relevant Risk/Method Statements which are reviewed per task in line with health and safety and I have found these to be excellent standard."

Chris Bradley - Kerawax

"I have used IDM Engineering over many years to provide both on and off site services in machinery repair, development of new equipment and testing programs.

In my experience IDM is the ideal size of business to provide the depth of experience and knowledge to complete a job, with the enthusiasm and commitment typical of an SME. The defining characteristic of IDM Engineering is the feedback and creative input into projects which they can provide. The broad range of experience gained over the years enables IDM to offer suggestions about how obstacles may be overcome. This knowledge can be put to use in the development of new products and machinery and also the maintenance of existing production equipment.

My dealings with IDM have been friendly, productive, comprehensive and effective. I would have no hesitation in reccommending them to any business seeking engineering solutions."
