Leading engineering services firm Edwin James Group announced its rebrand to MARCH. The strategic move simplifies its market presence under a unified identity while enhancing its ability to deliver a total engineering solution to customers in high-tech, complex, and regulated environments.
The transition to MARCH represents a significant evolution of the business, consolidating the strengths of group companies ACS, Musk Process Services, Parker Technical Services and Peak Technology Solutions under a single name. The change will improve operational efficiencies, streamline customer interactions, and enhance the company’s ability to meet the evolving needs of industrial clients.
“Rebranding as MARCH is a natural evolution for us” said Christopher Kehoe, CEO, MARCH. “Edwin James Group was formed through the acquisition of ten specialist companies, each bringing their own unique expertise. At our heart we’re engineers. Our teams are at the forefront of addressing the most pressing challenges facing our customers, from ensuring the reliability and efficiency of critical infrastructure to advancing digital transformation.”
A key part of this strategy is addressing the industry’s most pressing challenges, including the growing skills gap, which the MARCH Academy is tackling head-on
The rebrand supports MARCH’s strategy to expand its position in the UK market and target future growth, both organically and through acquisition. By focusing on performance improvements across key sectors such as food and drink, nuclear, defence, and utilities, MARCH enhances the efficiency of buildings, processes, and digital control systems.
A key part of this strategy is addressing the industry’s most pressing challenges, including the growing skills gap, which the MARCH Academy is tackling head-on. The Academy is pivotal in developing multi-skilled engineers who will drive the future of the industry, ensuring MARCH is well-equipped to meet both current and future customer needs.
“Our customers are increasingly concerned about the shrinking talent pool,” Kehoe continued. “Our Academy actively tackles this by developing engineers who understand safety, quality, and performance from the ground up. MARCH Academy graduates are multi-skilled, and they think beyond the basics. They look at the bigger picture and are trained for excellence across disciplines. It’s about making progress with purpose—step-by-step optimisation and improvement—and doing it together as one unified team.”
