This week, FAIRFIELDS has been working with STEMpura to deliver WRO-inspired STEM Days to schools across Scotland, giving young people the opportunity to get hands-on with robotics, problem-solving and competition-style challenges.

Alongside the practical activities, the sessions have provided an insight into careers across engineering, technology and infrastructure, connecting what students learn in the classroom with the real projects taking place in their local area.

It’s a great way to introduce young people to the opportunities available within STEM and show how the skills they’re developing today can be applied to real-world challenges.

Today is National Manufacturing Day 2026.

Modern manufacturing is about far more than the products coming off the production line.

Behind every high-performing operation are the people, engineering, control systems and digital technologies that keep things moving safely, securely and efficiently.

At FAIRFIELDS, we bring together Engineering, Control and Digital expertise to support complex manufacturing environments from concept and design through to delivery, commissioning and long-term support.

Today, we’re celebrating the people, skills and innovation that continue to shape the future of UK manufacturing.

OT cybersecurity: knowing the risk is only the first step.

As industrial systems become more connected, manufacturers and operators are facing increasing pressure to improve cyber resilience.

But where do you start, and how do you know which improvements should be prioritised?

Join FAIRFIELDS on Tuesday 3 November, 2:00–3:00 PM GMT for a practical webinar exploring how organisations can move from understanding OT cyber risk to taking action.

We’ll cover:
• Why OT cybersecurity requires a different approach to traditional IT security
• Why asset discovery and visibility are the foundations of effective OT security
• How to assess cyber consequences and operational risk
• How standards such as IEC 62443 can help define appropriate security requirements
• How to identify and prioritise the gaps that matter most
• Practical measures including segmentation, secure remote access, system hardening and monitoring
• How to make OT cybersecurity an ongoing process rather than a one-off project

The session will include 45 minutes of practical guidance followed by 15 minutes of live Q&A with FAIRFIELDS specialists in industrial automation, networks and OT cybersecurity.
