Having outgrown its original Barnstaple offices Barum & Dewar took the keys to its brand new offices just a few weeks before Christmas.

Located on the western edge of Barnstaple with immediate access to the A361 link road and the M5 motorway network B&D’s new south west offices offer a modern and stimulating work environment.

With state of the art communications and workspace settings the new offices provide additional space and resources for B&D’s increasing staff requirements. The offices are home to a number of key teams including Technical Design, Group Financial Services, Operations and Sales & Marketing. A largely open plan layout with conference facilities and break out area ensures that B&D’s integrated teamwork approach continues with free flowing communications and flexible engagement.

MD, David Frame commented “the relocation to larger, ultra-modern facilities designed specifically to meet our growing needs underlines both our commitment to this business as well as to this area of the UK. We have a fantastic team at B&D who continue to drive this business forward and providing them with an appropriate working environment is just one of a number of initiatives which we believe will assist in the growth of the business.”

Telephone and e-mail details remain as before but the address has changed from Unit 11 to Unit 3, Two Rivers Industrial Estate, Braunton Road, Barnstaple, North Devon EX31 1JY.

Barum & Dewar were delighted to receive their Cyber Essentials Certificate in recognition of their compliance with this Government backed and industry supported scheme.

The UK Government recently highlighted its plans to invest heavily in Cyber security and British Industry now need to be aware that every British company is a target, every British network will be attacked, and that Cyber crime is not something that happens to other people.

Barum and Dewar take the security of its client’s and supply partner’s data and information extremely seriously and fully support this scheme.

For businesses supplying into the UK Defence sector, the MOD is committed to ensuring it and its supply chain are appropriately protected and has been working jointly with Industry and other Government departments in the Defence Cyber Protection Partnership (DCPP) to develop a proportionate means of achieving this. For all new requirements advertised from 1st January 2016 which entail the transfer of MOD identifiable information from customer to supplier or the generation of information by a supplier specifically in support of the MOD contract, MOD will require suppliers to have a Cyber Essentials certificate by the contract start date at the latest, and for it to be renewed annually.

B&D are a key supplier to both the MoD and many UK Prime Contractors who can be re-assured that when engaging with Barum & Dewar all information is appropriately protected against the increasing cyber threat.
