Kenard Engineering - Software Division

The technology associated with manufacturing software fits exactly into the Group's business profile and when the opportunity to purchase established manufacturing software specialists Seiki Systems arose in 2002 the decision to acquire the company was made. Since then Seiki Systems has become a leading supplier of manufacturing execution software solutions, integrating the entire manufacturing enterprise to provide an immediate, visual and dynamic picture of the 'plan to make' production process.

In May 2008 DLoG (UK) Ltd, manufacturing software and hardware solutions provider, became part of the software division of Kenard Engineering, alongside Seiki Systems Ltd. The acquisition of DLoG (UK) was a strategic move designed to strengthen the software division of the Kenard Engineering Group by extending the existing product and service portfolios. It is an exciting addition to the Group that will significantly advance our vision for pursuing future growth and investment opportunities. DLoG's solutions, experience and customer base compliment that of Seiki Systems, enabling us to extend our ability to deliver innovative solutions and high quality services by leveraging the core capabilities of both companies.
