Ghana success for TCC
February 4, 2010
TCC has been working closely with customers in Ghana to improve the effectiveness of key business processes within their organisations and to help determine the overall health of the business by benchmarking business processes against global best practices and assisting with the development of improvement plans where required.
Carol Barron, Regional Sales and Marketing Executive said that "Owners and Senior Managers of Customers should expect more from quality consultants than merely enforcing compliance with procedures and rules. Our consultants possess world-leading expertise in engineering and technical knowledge acquired from a variety of industries that includes Mechanical Engineering, Oil & Gas, Offshore Drilling and Construction". "Our Quality and Safety consulting services covers a number of regions world wide including West Africa. TCC has been delighted with the response from Customers in Ghana, where a number have been added to our portfolio in recent months. It was seen as being beneficial in many Ghanaian company's to have a local source of consultancy as Oil & Gas offshore exploration activity begins to ramp up off the Ghanaian coast".
TCC's involvement is not limited to the Oil & Gas sectors in the country. Other major industries in Ghana are the Gold Mining and Construction Industries. Senior Quality Consultant, James Murphy has been on assignment in Accra working with Harlequin International (GbH) Ltd the countries largest service supplier to the Gold Mining Industry and was positive about Ghana's role as a hub for West African commerce. He said "Many of the organisations that we are talking to here are very positive about implementing Integrated Management Systems to enhance their business's, allowing them to compete on an equal footing with other energy related countries in the region such as Nigeria and Angola". In support of this increase in business TCC is in the process of setting up offices in a Joint Venture with a local company. This office will be in the port city of Takoradi, which is the major hub for oil and marine business support in Ghana and hope's to have the business fully staffed by June of this year
