Today is Mental Health First Aider Day, MHFA England's national celebration of the Mental Health First Aiders who support colleagues at work. Our Engineering Manager, Andrew Morton is not only our trained Mental Health First Aider, but he’s also one of our Emergency First Aiders as well. He covers both sides of first aid at Projex Solutions: helping anyone who is hurt, and being there for anyone who is struggling.

Safety first is one of our core values, and it applies to people as much as plant. Our engineers work in highly regulated industries where physical hazards are assessed and controlled as standard. Workload and project pressure carry risks too, and having colleagues trained in both physical and mental health first aid is part of how we look after each other.

As Andrew said when he qualified, "I want to support others when they're going through challenging moments." Thank you to Andrew for the time he gives to the team, and to every MHFAider doing the same in their own workplace.

Today is Armistice Day. At 11am, the nation falls silent to remember the men and women who have served and sacrificed to protect this country.

On Remembrance Sunday, our Engineering Manager, Andrew Morton, marked the day with North Tameside Scout District, where he is District Lead Volunteer. From Squirrels to Network, Scouts and leaders paid their respects at services in Ashton, Audenshaw and Droylsden.

This year carried extra meaning for the district. In September it lost Jack Millin, its first District Commissioner and a Second World War airman, at the age of 102. Andrew was among the Scouts who formed a guard of honour at his funeral.

We are proud to support colleagues who give their time to their communities, and to see the next generation keeping the spirit of Remembrance alive.

We will remember them.

Safety instrumented systems are the last line of automated defence on many process plants. A trip that cuts a feed on high pressure, an interlock that isolates a vessel on high level, a system that stops a reaction running away. Most of the time they do nothing at all, and that is the point. They are designed for the rare day when everything else has failed.

That rarity is also the risk. A safety function that is never called on gives no sign that it has stopped working. Proof tests slip when production is busy, bypasses fitted for maintenance stay in place, sensors drift, valves stick, and modifications change the process without anyone revisiting the SIL target. The reliability calculated at design depends entirely on the assumptions behind it, including how often the function is tested and how quickly faults are repaired. IEC 61511 treats functional safety as a lifecycle for exactly this reason.

Projex Solutions supports functional safety across that lifecycle. We facilitate HAZOP, LOPA and SIL determination, design and verify safety instrumented functions, and help sites manage what happens after commissioning: proof test procedures and intervals, bypass control, performance monitoring and periodic review. Where safety systems have been in place for years, we can assess whether they still meet the requirement they were designed for, and set out a practical plan where they do not.

If you are not sure when your safety functions were last proven to work, talk to Projex Solutions.

Process manufacturing depends on engineers who understand chemistry, safety, regulation and the realities of a working plant. That combination takes years to build, and across the industry many experienced engineers are approaching retirement while too few young people are coming through to replace them.

The gap will not close on its own. Many young people have never met an engineer, have little idea what process engineering involves, and do not see manufacturing as a career that could be theirs. Those who do join need more than a job title. They need time alongside experienced people, exposure to real projects and real sites, and the chance to learn safely while being trusted with real responsibility. That takes deliberate effort from employers of every size, not just the largest.

At Projex Solutions, apprenticeships and early careers have always been part of how we work. We bring apprentices and early career engineers onto real projects from the start, supported by engineers across every discipline who remember being at exactly the same point. Members of our team volunteer as STEM Ambassadors, and this year we spoke to hundreds of students at National Manufacturing Day about what a career in engineering really looks like.

If you know a young person who is curious about engineering, encourage them to ask questions. And if they want to know what the job really involves, talk to Projex Solutions.

Today is Remembrance Sunday.

At 11am, communities across the UK will fall silent for two minutes to remember the men and women of the armed forces who gave their lives in conflict, past and present.

We remember too all those who have served and continue to serve, and the families who carry the cost of that service every day.

We will remember them.

Most process sites store liquids that would cause serious harm if they escaped: solvents, acids, alkalis, oils, product and effluent. Primary containment, the tank, vessel or IBC, is usually designed and inspected with care. The secondary containment around it, the bund, kerbing, drainage and isolation, often gets far less attention, despite being the barrier that matters when everything else has failed.

Bunds age quietly. Concrete cracks, joints fail, pipework penetrations are added through the walls, drain valves are left open, and new tanks are squeezed into bunds sized for something smaller. Capacity checks rarely allow for rainfall or the volume of firefighting water a major fire would generate. Those questions tend to be asked only after a release, when product or contaminated water has already reached a drain, a watercourse or the ground. CIRIA C736 sets out what good containment looks like, and it is widely used as the benchmark for permitted and COMAH sites.

Projex Solutions assesses containment systems against CIRIA C736 and the relevant regulatory requirements. We survey existing bunds and drainage, check capacity against the inventory, rainfall and firewater scenarios, assess condition and integrity, and identify the weak points, including tertiary containment where the risk calls for it. We then design practical, proportionate improvements and support you through delivery, so your containment can be relied on when it is needed.

If you have not reviewed your containment arrangements for a while, talk to Projex Solutions.

Process plants rarely stay as they were designed. Equipment is replaced, raw materials are substituted, set points are adjusted, procedures are rewritten, staffing changes, and production rates are pushed to meet demand. Change is how a site improves, and on a regulated site it is also one of the most common routes to an incident.

Many incidents do not start with a failure. They start with a change that seemed minor at the time: a like-for-like replacement that was not quite like-for-like, a temporary bypass, a new raw material supplier, a control system tweak made to keep production running. The lessons go back decades. The Flixborough disaster in 1974 followed a temporary pipe modification that had not been properly designed or assessed. The common thread is rarely the absence of a change procedure. It is changes that go around it, or pass through it without anyone asking the right technical questions.

Projex Solutions supports sites at every stage of the change process. We help set up management of change procedures that are proportionate and usable, provide engineers to assess proposed changes across process, mechanical, EC&I and safety disciplines, and update the hazard studies, DSEAR assessments, drawings and documents affected, so your safety case stays current. Where a change becomes a project, we design and deliver it with the same discipline.

If changes on your site are moving faster than your assessments, talk to Projex Solutions.

Remember, remember the fifth of November. Tonight, bonfires and fireworks will light up skies across the UK, and every one of them relies on the same simple principle: fuel, oxygen and a source of ignition. Take one away and nothing happens. Bring all three together in the right proportions and the result can be spectacular, or devastating.

On a process site, the same principle applies with far less margin for error. Flammable gases, vapours and combustible dusts can mix with air to form an explosive atmosphere, often inside equipment or in places nobody thinks of as hazardous: a vessel headspace, a dust collector, a drum decanting area, a powder tipping station. Add an ignition source, whether a hot surface, a static discharge, unsuitable electrical equipment or a spark from maintenance work, and the consequences can be severe. The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR) exist to make sure those elements are understood and controlled.

Projex Solutions carries out DSEAR assessments and hazardous area classification across chemical, pharmaceutical, FMCG, energy and other process manufacturing sites. We identify where explosive atmospheres can form, classify the zones, assess every potential ignition source, and set out practical measures to remove or control them, from equipment selection and earthing and bonding to ventilation and safe systems of work. We also deliver DSEAR awareness training, so the people working in those areas understand the hazard as well as the paperwork.

Enjoy the fireworks safely tonight. And if you are not sure where the explosive atmospheres are on your site, talk to Projex Solutions.

Plant layout is one of the earliest decisions on any project and one of the hardest to change later. Where equipment sits decides how material flows, how far pipework and cables have to run, where hazardous areas fall, how people escape in an emergency, and how easily the plant can be operated, cleaned, maintained and eventually extended.

Layouts often go wrong because they are developed to fit equipment into a space, rather than to fit the plant around the people who will use it. The vessel that cannot be lifted out without dismantling a pipe rack. The valve that can only be reached from a ladder. The zone that extends over a road nobody intended to classify. The line that has nowhere to grow. Each looks like a small compromise on a drawing. On a working site they become daily inefficiencies, safety risks and expensive modifications.

Projex Solutions develops site, equipment and pipework layouts that balance process, safety, access and maintenance from the start. We combine process and mechanical design with hazardous area classification and, where it helps, 3D scanning and 3D modelling, so layouts are tested against the real space and reviewed with operations and maintenance teams before they are fixed. The result is a plant that works for the people running it, and still has room to change when your needs move on.

If you are planning new plant or reworking an existing area, talk to Projex Solutions.

On most process projects, a large share of the budget is spent on equipment and contracts, and a large share of the programme risk sits in procurement. Long-lead items set the critical path, vendor drawings drive the detailed design, and contract terms decide who pays when something goes wrong.

It is tempting to treat procurement as a commercial exercise and award to the lowest price. The real cost of a purchase is decided elsewhere: in how clearly the specification was written, how carefully the bids were compared on a like-for-like basis, and how well the order is managed afterwards. A low quote that excludes documentation, testing, ATEX certification or site support is not cheap. Neither is equipment that arrives late, fails its factory acceptance test, or turns up with drawings that do not match the design.

Projex Solutions manages procurement as an engineering activity, not just a purchasing one. We write clear technical specifications and requisitions, run technical and commercial bid evaluations, expedite vendors and review their documents, and witness factory acceptance testing so problems are found at the supplier's works rather than on your site. Throughout, we stay independent of the vendors, so the recommendation you receive is based on what is right for your project.

If you have a project with critical equipment to buy, talk to Projex Solutions.
