Business in Plymouth

Plymouth is a naval city and the defence relationship still shapes a great deal of the local economy — the dockyard, the marine engineering and the supply chain around them, alongside a growing marine autonomy and technology cluster working out of the university and the marine science institutions. There is manufacturing at Langage and Estover, a large hospital and a visitor economy on the Hoe and the Barbican. It is the furthest point south west on this map by a distance, and the practical consequence is the same as at Peterhead: designs lean towards having less on site that can fail.

Sectors we work with around Plymouth

Plymouth — common questions

We supply into defence from Plymouth. Does that raise the bar on security?

Considerably, and usually the customer sets it rather than us. Segmented networks, monitored firewalls, controlled and reviewed access, and documented configuration are the baseline. Where a contract carries a formal standard attached to it we build to that standard rather than to our own view of good practice, and we want sight of the requirement early.

Plymouth is a long way from anywhere. What happens when hardware fails?

We lean towards designs with less on site to fail — cloud telephony rather than a system in a cupboard, and mobile failover on the connection so a fault degrades service instead of stopping it. Where hardware is genuinely needed we hold spares rather than ordering after the event, because a long round trip is not a same-day fix.
