ABOUT PIVOT UK

WORLD LEADER IN OUTSOURCED PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND MANUFACTURING

Pivot International was originally founded in the United States — specifically, in Kansas City in 1972. The company began as a product design and development engineering firm and was one of the first U.S. product development firms to jump into global sourcing. In 1985, Pivot opened a procurement office in Taiwan, and four years later, a manufacturing division in the Philippines. Since then, we have acquired numerous companies to expand our capabilities, and now have offices across the globe, including the United Kingdom. Our core service offerings include electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, software design, industrial design, project management, contract manufacturing, electronic manufacturing services (EMS), prototyping, supply chain management, data management, business development, and regulatory compliance.

Pivot has over 50 years of expertise in the field of product development and manufacturing. Positioned as a world leader in outsourced product development and manufacturing, Pivot offers the seamless convenience of working with a U.S. company and the financial advantages of utilizing its own in-house, offshore, tooling procurement, and manufacturing capabilities.

Pivot International has two UK subsidiaries, Wideblue based in Glasgow and A2E based in Livingston. Wideblue specialises in optics, photonics and medical devices and was originally the in-house design and development department of Polaroid Corporation. Wideblue offers low volume initial production runs here in the UK, before movement to alternative lower-cost manufacturing sites. A2E has significant strengths in the oil and gas market, metering, software, and the design and development of ruggedized products for harsh environments.

With Pivot as your partner, your organization will increase shareholder value, maximize Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for new product development, and enhance your competitive advantages within the industry.
