What a diverse, interesting, and sometimes scary world we live in. As we navigate our own patch of turf and crystal ball gaze about what the future holds, we are mindful of the differences in the world business landscape. Spida Machinery operates three distinct manufacturing facilities, in different parts of the world. To capture and understand each sector, we hold weekly reviews of what the economy, manufacturing, and construction industry look like in each location and what that means to each sector, and then review as a Global business. Suffice to say, it is more apparent than ever that one size “does not” fit all. Country by country, state by state, and even region by region, the differing landscapes inform our discussions and keep our planning processes fluid, so we are ready to adapt to the demands of the country at hand, while still keeping an eye of the diverse overall big picture.
In these times of uncertainty, especially in the housing and building sector, we at Spida find ourselves reflecting on our business principles and our promise to the market:
- Provide a high-quality product that is fit for purpose.
- Partner with the customer to understand their wants and needs, thereby developing the machinery that best suits our customers’ requests.
- Adapt, innovate, and supply.
Working and partnering with our customers is our forte. From an initial enquiry, ensuring all questions are answered, we want to provide a machine or machines that will meet your requirements; if necessary, we’ll talk through the alternatives and start a little design work for you too. Regularly we adapt or tweak a piece of machinery to develop and provide the best product for the job at hand. It is no secret that our machinery is often adapted to suit a customer’s factory or plant – we can do this because of the expertise of our sales, technical, and engineering teams. Spida strongly believes that this is our “point of difference” and our undeniable “offer to market.”
Our commitment to partner with you applies to individual pieces of equipment as well as entire cutting, framing, and pressing systems. And, we are certainly riding the waves in each sector as we speak. Whilst most travel is at a stand-still from an International perspective, domestic travel is now top of mind in each country. Spida’s service and installation teams are incredibly busy, and the utmost care is taken when travelling and visiting. Maintenance and service programs are highly valued, and our team of engineers reviews each piece of machinery, on site, to thoroughly plan a maintenance schedule according to the customer’s requirements and availability. A quick phone call to the Spida office can arrange a technician to site or put in place a “PMP” (preventative maintenance program) to suit.
We at Spida also are very aware that there is pain in some of the building sectors in our world markets. There is an expectation that building could possibly slow in the coming months, if it hasn’t already, reflecting the Covid-19 shut-down experienced at the height of the pandemic. A shining light is that some savvy customers are taking the opportunity to explore and talk to us about the possibilities or options with machinery, so installation can occur during weeks when production may be slower. There is never a wrong time to reassess your production capabilities and increase accordingly to save labor, increase production, and eventually gain market share.
Finally, our diverse and interesting world is one to contemplate and then take action. If saving on labor is your requirement, Spida has you covered with automation and efficiency. Is it time to update or upgrade? Simply make a call or visit the website to see what fits your requirements. Spida has so many pieces of machinery on offer for the frame and truss or components manufacturing plant, a review of the website or a phone call is the first step for securing your own piece of innovation and technology. www.spida.com.
