About Westin Pumps

Founded in 1972, Westin Pumps is a trusted provider of marine and industrial pump solutions. The company specialises in pump supply, overhaul, and repair, serving sectors from shipping and petrochemicals to food manufacturing and mining. Now part of the Westin Group, Westin Pumps benefits from shared facilities and collaboration with sister companies, enhancing service delivery and operational efficiency.

Modernising Operations with Access FactoryMaster

Before adopting Access FactoryMaster, Westin Pumps relied on a legacy DOS-based system that was difficult to train staff on and lacked flexibility. The transition to Access FactoryMaster brought immediate improvements in usability and integration.

Being a Windows-based solution enabled integration with existing systems and  also helped Westin Pumps track order progress more effectively and respond faster to customer needs.

“We wanted to use Access FactoryMaster to leverage its flexibility, mostly with the aim of increasing our operational efficiency and therefore our customer satisfaction.”

Administration Manager, Westin Pumps

Boosting Productivity and Transparency

One of the standout features for the team was the hotkey function, which allows users to open multiple windows simultaneously, dramatically improving multitasking and productivity. 

Additionally, the freight line on invoices provided greater transparency for customers, clearly showing what charges were applied and improving trust and satisfaction.

Measurable improvements and benefits

Westin Pumps praised the training and consultancy provided by Access, which helped them get up to speed quickly and to apply best practices. Regular updates and guidance have supported continuous improvement.

“The support’s been top class. The training and consultancy is exactly what we need to progress.”

The implementation of Access FactoryMaster has delivered strong ROI, with measurable financial benefits and improved business productivity.
