Case Study
Cable Manufacturing facility relocation from the UK to the USA
Beck & Pollitzer was commissioned to execute the end-to-end relocation of a large-scale Cable Manufacturing factory from Swindon, UK, to a new production hub in Duncan, USA. The project required the seamless transfer of high-value, sensitive machinery across two continents within a compressed timeframe to protect global supply chain continuity.
Our team of 17 on-site operatives delivered a turnkey solution encompassing mechanical, electrical, and piping (MEP) services. Key technical phases included:
Precision disassembly & MEP: Meticulous disconnection of high-tension production lines, including specialised support equipment, chillers, and compressed air systems. All components were documented to ensure exact calibration upon reinstallation.
Live environment safety: Execution within a live industrial environment under strict safety protocols, supported by traffic management and dust and noise mitigation measures to prevent disruption to adjacent operational lines.
Heavy lift & strategic logistics: Management of complex heavy lifting and international sea freight for oversized machinery, ensuring the integrity of critical machine-to-utility interfaces.
Optimised reinstallation: Expert positioning and reconnection of all MEP services in Duncan, prioritising precise alignment and rapid utility integration. Contact us for your next Power Cable project.
The project was completed in three months, delivering approximately 10,990 project-hours with zero safety incidents. Through effective sequencing, Beck & Pollitzer reduced overall downtime relative to initial estimates and enabled an accelerated restart, delivering a fully operational facility ahead of schedule.
