BRUSH enables innovation and collaboration through change
Design & engineering data is one of the areas where changing current ways of working can have a huge positive effect across the whole company.
The Challenge
For many manufacturing companies, design and engineering data sits at the heart of operations. But without the right processes in place, this critical data can be difficult to manage, leading to inefficiencies, duplicated work, and missed opportunities. BRUSH Group recognised that their existing way of working needed to evolve to fully support their teams and future growth.
The Approach
Leading the change, Gareth Williams from BRUSH Group worked closely with Symetri to review how design and engineering data was being handled. The focus was on introducing new ways of working that would not only improve data management but also make collaboration easier across departments.
Through workshops, coaching, and hands-on support, BRUSH Group’s teams were guided through the change process, helping them adopt new methods that streamlined data handling and reduced complexity in day-to-day tasks.
The Results
The shift has already made a significant positive impact. Employees report that their work is more efficient, less repetitive, and better connected across the business. By transforming how design and engineering data is managed, BRUSH Group has:
-
Improved collaboration between teams
-
Reduced time spent on manual or duplicated tasks
-
Increased accuracy and consistency of data
This project highlights how rethinking the management of design and engineering data can deliver real business value. For BRUSH Group, the change has already improved employee experience and efficiency and continues to support their competitiveness in the manufacturing sector.
