Today, the SSAIB-approved company counts schools and colleges, councils, retailers such as Aldi, housebuilders, and leisure venues, including Twycross Zoo, among its customers.
They also look after many SMEs and global companies, including supply chain specialist GEFCO, which recently had MES Systems install a complex biometric access control system at its 220,000 sqft logistics centre in Coventry.
Despite its growth, however, the company remains true to the values of a family-run firm, according to Andy’s son Richard Morgan, now managing director.
“In 35 years, over 96% of our work has been repeat business or referral-based and we are incredibly proud of the trust customers have in us,” he said.
“It’s the added care they appreciate, like working flexibly outside retailers' operational hours to reduce downtime.
“We also allocate engineers to specific jobs so there is always continuity for customers.”
MES Systems, a finalist in the national Fire and Security Matters Awards in June and accredited by the Good Business Charter, also heavily supports the community.
“We upgraded Nuneaton Town FC’s CCTV system for free and are a Myton Hospices corporate supporter, looking after their Coventry, Warwick and Rugby hospices,” said Richard. “In fact, we are taking on the Three Peaks Challenge for the charity this year.
“Our employees can also take one day a year, fully paid, to carry out volunteering or take part in a community benefiting activity as part of our Thrive at Work accreditation.
“As we celebrate our 35th anniversary, we want to thank our customers and our team for making our company what it is today.”
Businesses looking to improve their fire and security systems – from bespoke access control systems, industrial CCTV and gate automation systems to integrated fire alarms and intruder alarm monitoring - can contact MES Systems on 02475 420575 or [email protected].
