The PE standard
A practice, not a panel of contractors
Independently owned and led by engineers. You deal with a firm that learns your machines, your sites and the true cost of a stoppage.
Engineers who know your fleet
Continuity of personnel is the point. The same hands return to your sites and come to understand your assets over the life of the relationship.
Pricing agreed in advance
Rates are set and confirmed before work begins. No attendance surcharge appears after the fact, and no figure arrives unexplained.
Our method
From enquiry to certificate
-
01
You brief us
Tell us the machine, the symptom and the location. We record the job and confirm an appointment.
-
02
We attend
A provisioned engineer travels to your site — frequently the same day, and through the night when a breakdown demands it.
-
03
Resolved & certified
Diagnosis, repair and sign-off in a single attendance, with the documentation your records require.

A note from the field
PE
The Hornsea 2 offshore wind farm is a landmark scheme for Ørsted, with VolkerInfra appointed as principal contractor to install some thirty-eight kilometres of export cable. The earthmoving and support plant on site was considerable. Plant Equipment kept that equipment in service throughout — support without which delay and additional cost would have been difficult to avoid. The promptness, the eye for detail and the standard of service were valued by all of us.
