Introduction

TechSoft’s sales and training team spends pretty much every day in schools and colleges, working with teachers in every part of the country to provide training, inspiration and advice about CAD/CAM systems and how best to incorporate them into the Design and Technology curriculum. Our regionally based personnel have nearly eighty years of classroom teaching experience between them, and four have led workshop re-development programmes in their former roles as heads of department. They all remain passionate about Design and Technology education in its widest sense.

CAD/CAM resources are, of course, only part of the picture when designing and equipping coherent workshop layouts. TechSoft has exactly the right blend of experience, vision and skill to create stimulating and safe working environments for students and efficient, well resourced facilities for teachers. Getting it right for the teacher is always the primary aim and, in so doing, we will invariably achieve cost-effective solutions and a sustainable legacy for the school or college management.

Our many years of teaching experience comes into its own at the earliest stage of consultancy, through managing the installation to training and support at the end of the project. TechSoft provide a level of service that is unbeatable from the teacher’s perspective and we strive to be exemplary partners with fellow contractors in larger projects.

We provide a full solution including traditional hand and machine tools as well as the latest technology. In discussion with the people who will be using it, we can advise on and specify benching, furniture and storage solutions and will provide initial layout drawings for further refinement. These can be easily reviewed using TechSoft’s own 2D Design software that is already in use in many schools and colleges. Formats more suitable to the construction industry are also available.

We have strong working relationships with equipment manufacturers so trouble free installation is virtually guaranteed. A permanent management presence on site allows any issues to be nipped in the bud and projects are thereby finished on time and to budget.

Many clients look to a ‘green’ solution and TechSoft can supply a refurbishment and re-installation service for old machines. This often saves capital costs and can make a significant contribution to the sustainability agenda typically attached to refurbishment and new-build projects.

All installed equipment is commissioned prior to handover and familiarisation on every item is arranged at a time to suit the teachers who will be using it.

The post installation period can be fraught with difficulties. Teachers are working in a new and unfamiliar environment with new equipment and support is of the essence. The vast experience of the TechSoft team goes a long way in providing that support

 

“TechSoft was very accommodating with regards to machine specifications and amendments needed prior and post installation. We also feel that the company have and continue to support us with further training and excellent INSET on site with the new machines especially with the CAD/CAM and software training ensuring that the teacher and teaching and learning is at the centre of the project. I would have no hesitation with recommending the company for future projects of this type.”

The Head of D&T at North Liverpool Academy, Neil McCarthy
