Our innovative designs and specialist expertise make us a leading provider in the North West, offering UK-wide coverage.

Our focus is on safety and improving your organisation’s efficiency, reducing costs and saving you time. We offer bespoke services in the following three areas:

Custom Test Solutions

Our custom electronics test solutions are expertly designed and built to our clients’ exact specifications, ensuring maximum efficiency. This collaborative process begins when you tell us what you need to test. After careful consideration we will propose and specify a solution, which we will then jointly agree on with you. Our technologies and specialist hardware ensure that building and delivery meet your organisation’s goals, providing cost and time benefits.

Industrial Electronic Repair and Refurbishment

We have comprehensive repair capabilities that are suitable for any industry, and which ensure minimum impact to business continuity. Our industrial electronic repair and refurbishment services include diagnostic reporting to identify the point and reason of failure. We can provide emergency fast turnaround repairs, as well as material analysis and selection. A 12 month warranty is offered on all repairs.

Obsolescence Management

Obsolete systems and components can cause huge problems when spare parts are unavailable. By assessing your systems and predicting which components may become obsolete, you can stay one step ahead and have solutions ready. This will reduce downtime and safeguard your organisation’s reputation.

Like Technologies follows a structured obsolescence management approach, providing individually tailored solutions. We understand the time and cost implications to our clients and provide advice on the safest and most suitable courses of action. Solutions include: Item Equivalency Evaluation (IEE), equipment qualification, re-engineering, reverse engineering and even total system replacement. We also develop software solutions using modern touch screen devices to implement like-for-like replacements of legacy hardware devices.

With our experience in highly regulated environments, we are confident that we can become your trusted obsolescence solutions partner.
