A history of Caljel
Caljel was conceived in 1999 out of a passion to help and support small to medium sized engineering (SME) businesses that find they need to change to survive the downward spiralling manufacturing cycle in the UK. The founder, Carl Laxton, an experienced general manager in the Automotive Components market sector has supplied all of Europe’s leading Vehicle OEMs; Toyota, Honda, Ford, Nissan and the rest, during their formative and most difficult years in the UK. Carl now operates as a successful interim executive applying the lessons learnt to the re-engineering of companies in serious operational difficulty back to health and profitability.
Today's management are required to cover so much more than the day to day control of their businesses and will often be expected to cross all business functions; production, purchasing, logistics, finance and not least quality, their survival. Those of us who are keen to take the lead happily adopt the change management mantel. In all change processes the fundamentals of quality assurance are essential to build robust controls in each and every business under the umbrellas of ISO9000 and TS16949. The designated change manager is expected to hit the ground running and have an immediate impact on the business’s performance; “the QitS BOS Chart is probably the most cost effective investment in Quality software that you will ever make.” Successful change managers achieve this through reliance upon an extensive range of proven techniques and products; the QitS range of products has been developed by Caljel’s software engineering and training services teams to enhance the nominated change manager’s toolbox.
Caljel has come to realise that many existing software products are often highly complex and far exceed the requirements of an organisation; more often this is reflected in the high price. QitS products have been ‘created by Engineers with the Engineer in mind’ so as to maximise operational effectiveness and efficiency, not hinder it! Further, because of the ever increasing popularity of the QitS software range the selling prices is affordable, even for the smallest of our business clients.
Caljel also finds that many smaller software projects flounder because of a lack of resource (skill or time), both internal and external to the business. Our software support services provide a complimentary range of cost effective customer specific software solutions for its interim clients and or for enquiries through our website.
