“DENSO Manufacturing UK Limited have been using Op-tec Systems for over 16 years now, for projects of varying size and complexity. As a company Op-tec falls into that small niche market of being able to integrate 'Information Technology' into 'Automation'. It is in this aspect where I have found Op-tec Systems to be second to none.”
Simon Warner Software Engineer - Machinery Engineering | DENSO Manufacturing UK Ltd
“Op-tec has assisted Perenco in the supply of engineers with specific project deliverables, which they always achieved ahead of schedule and within budget. Their staff were dedicated, well thought of within Perenco and were often requested to return for extra project work and occasionally for Operational Support. Op-tec provided an efficient service, always there when we needed help, were ace at reprogramming the RS3 system and also sourced spare RS3 hardware when required. Their staff were always helpful, however late in the evening it was.”
