We deliver Engineering Services to Irish and International companies. We help our clients compete in the global market - providing them with tools to reduce costs and increase productivity.

What's important?

Experience. We have over 30 years experience solving problems and improving processes. We have found many common factors in every industry - so if a problem arises we've probably solved it before.

 
We have several advantages:

1) We’ve worked with scores of companies so we’ve seen a huge range of solutions.  A solution from another industry can often give a significant edge.

2) We’ve build up practical knowledge (and developed many techniques) over the last 30 years. Much of that knowledge would take a long time to replicate.

3) We’ve developed our own tools (software and other) that allow us to be more efficient at completing common tasks.

Pat Hough formed World Class Solutions (WCS) back in 1993. He has a long background in operations and engineering. He was engineering manager for 12 years before forming WCS.

Since then WCS has worked with many world-class companies – including Element Six, Bausch and Lomb, Janssen, Pfizer, etc. We’ve also supported many small companies – many of them unknown outside their own industry.

We provide supplementary skills to those available in-house. For example, in the last few years we’ve completed projects for several large companies in:

    * OEE Improvements

    * Downtime management

    * Knowledge Management & Transfer

    * Human Error Risk Management

    * Job Standardization

Much of the knowledge may be available in-house but we are able to deliver results to an agreed schedule without interfering with on-going work.

Multinational Managers

We can help you finish important projects that would otherwise be left incomplete

We can get results while you concentrate on the process

We can put materials and systems in place that will endure and give long term gains to the company.

SME Managers & Owners

We can develop your systems so that you can compete on a global level

We can train your staff to be more productive - even more so than many multinationals

We can also help you solve individual technical problems that are causing loss of productivity, quality or yield.

We have access to a network of professionals who can supplement our own skill sets.

That means that you get the best advice and expertise at all times.

We work on specific projects so you keep your total costs down.
