A smart way to finance industrial automation

Investing in new automated production systems usually calls for a considerable up-front cost to acquire, install and commission the required facilities. AMG Production Consultancy & Investment Services provides a service to companies with limited capital budgets, enabling them to benefit from automation consultancy advice and to acquire and operate bespoke production equipment with full technical and production support.

A smart way to finance industrial automation

Many companies, across a wide range of manufacturing sectors, are not exploiting the full market potential of their products due to constraints on the financing of new equipment. Frequently the unit production cost can be reduced significantly through investment in high-productivity systems; but often the financial resources are not readily available, particularly to smaller and medium-sized enterprises.

Companies benefiting from AMG's input typically have excellent products or are providing a superior service, with strong potential for future growth. But they desperately require investment in technology to enhance the performance, quality and profitability of their production processes. For small to medium-sized companies, the traditional investment routes - including venture capital - are no longer readily available. More recently, even larger organisations are facing restrictions on capital expenditure, which is also beginning to compromise growth.

AMG has access to funds for investment in manufacturing and the knowledge and experience to make systems work. The company provides a range of alternative and highly beneficial technical and commercial automation expertise for manufacturing companies across a broad industrial spectrum, from healthcare and pharmaceuticals to engineering products and electronics.

Formed by highly experienced product and production system design consultants, AMG provides alternative manufacturing development and production financial strategies to avoid the need for major capital investment, up-front, by the operating company. The Directors between them have a combined experience of automated manufacturing systems of over 75 years; they are also recognised as leading authorities on the concept of product 'design for manufacture,' working with companies of all sizes, from multi-national groups to SMEs.

What AMG offers

AMG offers a wide range of production consultancy and automation financing services:

  • Provision of bespoke production equipment through a range of flexible financing packages offering immediate returns on investment.
  • Mitigation of the client's commercial risk.
  • Ongoing technical support and equipment optimisation.
  • Full production consultancy service from product design-for-manufacture to automation feasibility and justification studies.

AMG can also assist in the development and full exploitation of innovative ideas or IP (intellectual property). This often requires new production systems to maximise the product's advantages at a price level the market will accept. Once again, AMG can provide appropriate services, working with companies to finance and provide precisely the manufacturing systems the new innovation needs.

Companies wanting to evaluate whether the AMG production partnership approach to investment in new manufacturing systems is right for them can discuss their ideas in the strictest confidence.
