Thanks to the hard work of the entire team, last year was really successful for us - marked by securing top talent, expanding our client base and investing in upskilling our people. All of which puts us in a great place for the year ahead.
Here are my 2024 highlights:
Team growth
We welcomed five new engineers to LRW, whilst retaining our existing talent, ensuring we have the right expertise as we move into 2025. We also secured ex-Aston Martin John McLean as our new Programme Director who started with us this January.
New clients and expanding partnerships
2024 was a year of growth, not just in our projects and team, but also in our client base. The relationships we built meant that we took on more projects for existing clients, brought on new clients and also developed existing partnerships - including Influx Technology and Warwick Control Technologies.
Consistent delivery
Thanks to the team’s dedication, we consistently delivered client projects, on time and on budget. We’ve been at the forefront of cutting-edge projects, working on everything from contributing to hypercar IVAs (individual vehicle approvals), ION detection, PVE (production vehicle evaluation) testing, through to fuel cell development for hydrogen buses.
Increase in PHEV, BEV and new energy projects
We saw a marked step up in new energy projects as the shift toward electrification continues. With even more PHEV and BEV projects under our belt, we’ve deepened our expertise in hybrid technology and new energy, including the latest OBD standards for EVs such as ZEVonUDS.
Training and development investment
Continuous learning is key for us to continue to deliver the best possible service for our clients. Our people have embraced training opportunities, and we expanded our in-house skillsets in:
- Functional Safety ISO 26262
- Advanced controls and integration
- CAN
We’ve already had a strong start to 2025 and I'm excited for the year ahead. There’s lots to look forward to - including expanding our support for low volume and niche manufacturers. So, a big thanks to the whole team and here's to a brilliant 2025!
Craig Fraser, Director.
