Acorn MPS work in a variety of sectors, please select below and also read some of our case studies which we hope may be of interest.
Commercial
Private Sector
Our activities in this sector are hugely diverse as occupation needs and building operating requirements differ. That said, our end goal is to provide cost effective mechanical and electrical service solutions that are sustainable and offer energy saving and environmental benefits.
We work with our clients in whatever way they require and our input differs depending on requirement. We work with some clients purely on a consultative basis, perhaps providing layout drawings, carbon and energy reduction advice or fault reporting. For other clients we provide a complete turnkey solution with responsibility for feasibility, design, build, installation and maintenance throughout the lifetime of the building. We also offer service and maintenance programmes in buildings where a high level of repair and care is required to keep services running effectively and to optimum efficiency. We are as comfortable working on major refurbishment and installation programmes, as we are on maintenance and small works – our vast experience encompasses both ends of the spectrum.
We work nationally with skilled teams of engineers, project managers and installers to ensure that successful project completion is achieved to deadline and budget.

Education & Public Sector
Our work within public sector education establishments is also recognised in the private sector where we provide mechanical and electrical services to a number of private schools.
Our experience working in the public sector is considerable, and we have full understanding of the processes within Local Authority and Government and their need to run efficient, effective public services.
The many skills we’ve learned and experience gained in other sectors – private, manufacturing and utilities for example – are always useful to consider within other environments. Our wide exposure to challenges in many different types of building, refurbishing and maintaining mechanical and electrical systems is put to good use in other sectors.
Acorn MPS offers a wide range of services to public sector clients, ranging from a total design, build and installation within a new build or refurbishment project, or a cost effective maintenance and repair service to optimise efficiency. We will also provide a consultancy service looking at feasibility, condition surveying, asset condition and performance testing, and carbon/energy reduction reporting.

Manufacturing and Food Processing
Acorn MPS provides a full range of mechanical and electrical services needed to keep modern manufacturing plants running efficiently and cost effectively. We work closely with many large manufacturing and food processing companies to keep energy consumption as low as possible and production efficiency at its highest level. This is often a keen balance, especially in refurbishment projects or maintenance schedules where disruption to production lines and output is inevitable, but needs to be kept to a minimum. We are experienced working in production environments where disruption to people and machinery can have a severe impact, so our engineering and installation teams always have the need to limit disruption at the forefront of their agenda.
Our experience runs across general manufacturing and specialist processing such as the food and timber industries where we work with a number of major players. With some clients we act as principal contractor, and others as a sub-contractor as part of a larger project, and we are comfortable in both arenas, where our multi-project skills and experience can be valuable at any level or stage of the project.
Large Residential
Architects and owners of today’s modern, sophisticated homes demand sophisticated technology and environmental sustainability, and Acorn MPS is a key provider on many large residential projects to provide solutions to these key issues.
Efficient heating and cooling systems are required to meet building and environmental regulations to reduce energy consumption and increase energy efficiency, and we are fully conversant with current regulations, and have the best technologies at our disposal to achieve these aims.
We are happy to work with architect and owner to ensure that these needs are met, and will be pleased to discuss similar projects and challenges that we’ve answered.
