Optimus Seventh Generation nets double contract win

Optimus Seventh Generation Ltd has secured two contracts to provide safety leadership training to clients including Bibby Ship Management in the North Sea, as well as a new Asian client.

These contract wins provide the company with a firm foundation on which to build upon its 2013 turnover of £5.8 million, up 40% on 2012, and add a further five positions to its 40 strong team.

Optimus Seventh Generation CEO, Derek Smith commented: “The recent contract wins strengthen our recent 2014 successes in Asia, and boost our presence into the marine sector of the North Sea.

International footprint

“The work further increases our international footprint by deploying trainers to our second client in Asia, having secured a contract with COSL Drilling Pan Pacific Limited in January, and to a number of Bibby Ship Management operated vessels in the North Sea.”

Optimus Seventh Generation specialises in helping clients implement significant behavioural change and deliver operational excellence.

Safety leadership training

Smith continued: “The contract in Asia, which kicked off in June, involves two of our trainers travelling to Singapore over three months, to provide safety leadership training. Following this, our behavioural coaches will be mobilising to the rig to help embed the newly acquired skills.”

The work secured with Bibby Ship Management commenced in July, and will involve a Culture of Care Diagnostic® being conducted onboard six of the company’s vessels. A cultural development program will then be produced that will be applied by an Optimus behavioural coach visiting each vessel in the fleet over the course of the next 12 months.

“We have seen a significant uptake in work in Asia particularly in the drilling sector, and in the marine sector both in the North Sea and internationally. We believe we are uniquely placed to support these clients in delivering a meaningful evolution of safety culture and behaviour, and look forward to adding value and implementing real and lasting change to new and existing clients,” Smith concluded.
