SDE Group collaborates with John Pye Auctions on smart storage project
Chesterfield’s SDE Group has revealed a successful collaboration with John Pye Auctions to enhance their operational efficiency and safety through the implementation of smart storage solutions.
The project involved a comprehensive assessment of existing equipment and procedures, followed by the design and installation of tailored storage systems. The project not only optimised space utilisation but also streamlined workflows, leading to improved productivity and adherence to safety protocols.
The successful transformation within a 12-month period was a testament to the collaborative efforts between SDE Group and John Pye’s team.
Project Consultant, Elliot Watson explained: “When John Pye Chesterfield first approached SDE for a small quantity of shelving in one of their salesrooms, it was clear to see during our first visit that the site had grown that quickly in such a short space of time, what made sense from an operational perspective (and what was required from a H&S point-of-view) were made secondary priorities to coping with the huge volume of sales the business was experiencing.
“That is why it is even more rewarding to see the site completely transformed within 12 months, after the hours put into reviewing all of their existing equipment and operational procedures, several designs and then re-designs, and then finally getting the project to site prior to their peak sales period.
“Special thanks go to Josh, Steve, John, and the rest of the Chesterfield team for their hard work and cooperation throughout the process.
“Witnessing a transformative project like this is always rewarding — even more so when it supports a local business and strengthens their service to the wider community.”
