Welcome to the latest quarterly update from AtSource! We have some exciting news to share, from new staff additions to product successes and shifts in the industry landscape.
Staff Changes
We are thrilled to welcome Reuben to our team. Reuben is a dynamic, young professional with a remarkable knack for technology and practical skills. His expertise with Google and tech tools is proving invaluable as he spearheads the implementation of our new computing system, SimPRO. Reuben’s role extends beyond the digital realm; he is actively engaged in design work and hands-on installations. Currently, he is playing a pivotal role in the nationwide service run for Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ).
Product Popularity
Our products have seen significant success this winter, particularly our Drying Cabinet. This product has received excellent feedback from customers for its efficiency in drying wet gear and uniforms. Designed to operate on single-phase power, the Drying Cabinet is compact yet powerful, making it ideal for firefighting, snow operations, farming, and any other industry where drying protective wear between shifts is crucial.
Economic Observations
The recent economic changes have presented a unique opportunity for businesses. With the shift from constant reactive work, many mid-sized industries are now able to evaluate and optimize their business systems. This trend has led to an increase in enquiries as businesses review their health and safety practices, seeking to enhance their work environments.
Focus on Safety in Schools
Government emphasis on safety in schools has heightened interest in our welding and woodwork dust extraction systems. This increased attention has spurred a surge in enquiries, reflecting the growing commitment to maintaining safe and healthy learning environments.
Office and Business Development
In the office, Sarah has been diligently setting up systems and driving business development. Her efforts are focused on establishing partnerships and reseller agreements, which are crucial for our growth strategy. Our stock management has seen significant improvements, allowing us to hold more inventory in New Zealand. This strategic move helps us mitigate the challenges posed by long lead times from Europe, ensuring quicker delivery times for our customers.
Exciting New Product Launch
We are excited to announce that we are bringing in a complementary product aimed at making installation easier for all industries. The product is Nordfab QuickFit Ducting, a modular ducting system that saves time and money. It is easy and quick to install, and we aim to make it easily available to all industries. More details to come.
Recognition and Expertise
I don’t like to blow my own trumpet, but my team insists I share this achievement: I have recently been recognized by the Nederman team in Sweden for my extensive experience and knowledge in fire and emergency extraction systems. I have been recruited to assist with the first system install in Australia. Our longstanding relationship with emergency organizations, especially FENZ, is a source of great pride for me. FENZ’s proactive approach to the health and safety of their firefighters is commendable, and I am honored to contribute to their efforts.
Busy Times Ahead
Lastly, we have several large projects in the pipeline, keeping our team busy and motivated. We are committed to delivering top-quality solutions and look forward to sharing more updates with you soon.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership with AtSource. Stay tuned for more exciting developments!
