Due to a significant increase in our customer base throughout the UK and ROI over the last two years we are looking to expand our technical support team here at the STRUMIS UK HQ in Derby.

We would be very keen to talk to anyone based in the UK or ROI with structural steel experience either office based or on the factory floor who are looking to further their career with a leading MIS software solutions provider.
The role would suit individuals with the following experience:

• Experience in the following fields: Steel Fabrication & Construction, BIM or related fields/industries.
• Experience in a support, technical or development environment.

Experience of the STRUMIS MIS software solution would be a distinct advantage but full training will be provided so it is not a requirement.

If you are interested in this role please send your CV to sales@strumis.com

For over 10 years STRUMIS customers have been reaping the benefits of being able to create estimates in seconds by importing 3D models into STRUMIS from third party modelling software solutions such as; Tekla, STRUCAD, Advance Steel and many more.

However more recently this ground breaking functionality has been enhanced in order to provide STRUMIS customers with an incredibly streamlined and efficient approach to model based estimating. This is achieved by by-passing the need to create 3D models in the third party modelling software solutions by importing them directly from design software solutions such as Revit Structures.

Importing directly from a Revit model removes the need for the detailing team to create a 3D model in a modelling software solution. This is in order to not only save you time but it also ensures 100% accuracy in importing the entire Revit design model material; while also alerting you to any unusual material that is detected during the import.

Companies such as Robinson Structures and Mifflin Construction have adopted this latest technology to streamline and improve accuracy on their day-today estimating.

Ashley Robinson – Operations Director for Robinson Structures ltd states

“We have extended our use of STRUMIS through importing 3D models either from our in-house Tekla detailing team or for added efficiencies we can import direct from the Revit model when available saving even more time producing our estimates.”

Steve Goode – Project Manager for Mifflin Construction Ltd adds

“The more Revit models we can obtain at the point of tender the better for us as this allows a rapid and accurate take-off direct from the engineers model to be completed within a matter of minutes. This allows more time to concentrate upon the vital role of the estimator to ensure material and labour prices are competitive to ensure our best win ratio.”

Further to the significant speed improvements STRUMIS provides, BIMReview (which is included with STRUMIS) allows the estimating team to provide a movie file of the finished project over-laid on google maps if required or alternatively you can use the standard scenes included with BIMReview.

This movie file accompanying the tender submission can accentuate the win probability and also demonstrate your company is adopting the very latest technology to support the steel construction industry.

Pontus Kallén, acting CEO of Astron Buildings, cut the ribbon of the new production line, together with Gordon Pringle, Director of the Přerov site, and Vaclav Šíma, Plant Manager.

The new investment allows Astron to increase the capacity of multi-storey building production. Brand new machines from European leader Voortman process raw materials with great speed and precision. Using STRUMIS as the new software engineering program, we are able perform cutting and drilling with significant time saving. As a result, we are now able to produce multi-storey buildings faster and in very high quality.

For additional tasks, new welding machines and cranes have been bought, as well as a bending press. A second bending press will be installed later this year. The new equipment will mainly serve to fulfill the increasing demand for Multi-storey Car Parks across the whole of Europe.

As part of our recent efforts to expand the STRUMIS team we are now hoping to hire a direct sales representative for the American office.

Experience within the steel fabrication industry and/or software sales would be hugely beneficial to anyone who is applying for the role.

However as we have our own dedicated STRUMIS training team we would be open to any candidate who can prove that they are willing to work hard and will bring value to the team.

The successful candidate will primarily be responsible for business development and building relationships with new and existing customers.

Salary will be dependent on experience and previous success in a similar role. For more information and to receive the job requirements/expectations please email d.whitaker@strumis.com

This week started with us receiving a lovely thank you from our much valued customer Severfield NI, who have completed their fifth annual fisher cycling challenge and in doing so raised an amazing £25,000 for charity.

Once again Severfield urged people to get on their bikes, get fit and help raise some much needed funds for charity. On Saturday the 9^th of July cyclists embarked on a journey around Fermanagh on either a 17, 45 or 75 mile leisure cycle, starting and finishing at Severfield (NI) in Ballinamallard.

As a result of the challenge £25,000 was raised for charities such as Action Mental Health, Edges Earlier Intervention, RNLI and the Severfield Foundation.
