The New Deta
Things are changing though and we thought it was about time to give ourselves a bit of a spruce up to reflect the DETA of now, and the future.
We’ve been fairly quiet for the last year or so, just getting things done for our clients. That’s what happens when you’re a small team I suppose. Things are changing though and we thought it was about time to give ourselves a bit of a spruce up to reflect the DETA of now, and the future.
For a start, we’re growing. From one FTE two years ago and three people this time in 2014, we’re now a team of 8 engineers and project managers… not all in the photo below, but they’re elsewhere on the website!!). We’ve also moved into a new office – we’d have been fairly uncomfortable in our old apartment – in Lincoln Rd, which has been awesome. Feel free to pop in for a coffee or, if you’re from out of town and need a desk to work from, give us a call.
You may have also noticed the new green superhero guy around the website. He wasn’t our idea really (thanks Studio Publica for the great website and ideas) but we reckon he’s a pretty good reflection of our overall goal – to be the best optimisation and efficiency business in the land.
So now that you know where we are, give us a call or pop in whenever you’d like. We’d be keen to have a chat about how we can help you achieve your business optimisation goals.
Have you noticed the shift in how we think about energy in business? Energy is no longer a utility expense on a spreadsheet; it's a strategic resource that can make or break your profit margin. As energy costs fluctuate and sustainability pressures mount, businesses across New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific are discovering that smart energy management is the key to unlocking operational excellence, cost savings, and environmental compliance. But what exactly does effective energy management look like, and how can it transform your industrial operations? The power of strategic energy management Energy typically represents one of the largest controllable expenses for industrial operations. Yet many businesses continue to view it as a fixed cost rather than an opportunity for strategic advantage. The reality is that comprehensive energy management has the power to deliver transformative benefits across your entire operation. When implemented effectively, energy management strategies don't just reduce utility bills - they create ripple effects throughout your business ecosystem, enhancing productivity, reducing maintenance costs, extending equipment lifespans, and strengthening your brand's reputation as an environmentally responsible operator. Not just saving money: the many advantages of energy management Financial advantages The most enticing benefit of energy management is straightforward cost reduction. By identifying inefficiencies, eliminating waste, and optimising consumption patterns, businesses typically see energy cost reductions of 10-30%. For energy-intensive industries, this translates to a significant amount of money and improvements. A Christchurch manufacturing plant recently worked with energy efficiency consultants to implement a comprehensive energy management program. The result? A 22% reduction in energy costs within the first year, with minimal capital investment. The savings came primarily from optimising existing systems rather than purchasing new equipment.
