Following a management buy-out in 2004, the company set about an ambitious growth plan to become a specialist electrical power engineering service provider. These services have broadened significantly as the company expanded; sales have increased 10 fold since 2004. HVMS has widened its competencies as well as increased its headcount to more than170. In 2013, sales revenue will exceed £35 million.
