PBE Axell focuses on delivering solutions across safety and communications
Redefining the realm of possibility in technologically-led solutions, PBE Axell is a world leader in the manufacture of integrated safety and wireless communication services. Its mission is“ to continuously supply [ its ] clients with effective solutions using innovative and consistently improving products backed up by exceptional customer support”, extending its excellence to all corners of the world.
Joining us to discuss the business and highlight recent transformations, is Greg McCray, CEO at PBE Axell, and Kyle Reau, VP of Global Operations. Greg begins by providing some insight into the company’ s capabilities and innovation.“ PBE Axell makes wireless communications networks and tracking and monitoring on collision avoidance technologies. Traditionally, we did a lot of work in the mining industry, but we’ ve since expanded our wireless communications and collision avoidance technologies into construction, warehousing and the industry sectors. This enhances the sectors – such as airports, buildings, and stadiums – that the Distributed Antenna Systems( DAS) are already deployed in. At the moment, we’ re refocusing on creating a best-in-class technology, development and engineering department, and so we’ re really upscaling our manufacturing. We now manufacture in three different countries, which allows us to deliver high quality products much faster. We’ re just appointed a new Chief Technical Officer, who is going to expand upon our technological investments in our strategy to be a technology-led company. We’ ve also brought in a new HR Lead, a Finance Lead, and a Services VP to further align our culture, sales, services, and business development. It’ s a real, solid team.” Kyle continues by elaborating on these positive changes.“ Over the last year, we have made significant improvements to our company, particularly in reducing our backlogs, which had reached unacceptable levels. Our customer relationships needed attention. As such, we’ ve invested heavily in placing the right people in key management positions.”
