As an independent organisation representing the UK Industrial Automation sector, we have recognised that services standards, which complement existing product standards, can assist you in your drive for better returns and minimised risk.
We know that as part of this drive, you must ensure that:
- Uptime and throughput are optimised
- Lifecycle costs are considered upfront
- Appropriate cost-effective services have been selected.
GAMBICA has set out to assist you in meeting these objectives byproviding an industry benchmark for product related services, and foradditional plant lifecycle services.
This is an independent scheme created for the benefit of the UK automation market, and our objectives are to:
- Avoid misunderstandings or assumptions within the scope of supply
- Provide a reference to aid equitable assessment of suppliers
- Identify the full range of services available from many GAMBICA members
- Provide a guide to identify complementary skills or services to bridge gaps or fill shortfalls in user competencies
- Provide an aid to staff development.
We have developed this Scheme specifically for the UK market, and to be in line with schemes operating and planned in other European countries. We are proud to say that we are leaders in this development.
