From this point onwards, all companies within the group (YorPower, PPSPower and Glenace) now use the same systems, have full visibility of everyone in the different

Ian McKinnon, Managing Director, CHAS, commented: “We are very excited to be joining Veriforce, who are committed to growing the business both within the UK and internationally.

companies and know how each person goes about their job as they all work towards the same goal.
The vision statement for the group is ‘To be the most trusted provider of UPS, generator and control panel solutions’. ‘Trusted’ is a word that has always been integral to the YorPower family. In the back-up power industry, companies depend on continuous power – any power failure, even momentary, can be disastrous. That’s why having a reliable and trusted provider of back-up power solutions is so important and YorPower is proud to be that trusted name for a growing number of customers.
PPSPower was established eight years ago, the result of a merger of two businesses: Power Plant Services and the Progress Group. Today, Mr Peal acknowledges that PPSPower is a strong brand in its own right, and is proud of

“You could say that the master plan was right there from the beginning, because the PPSPower branding actually looks very much like the YorPower brand,” Mr Peal states. “So now we’ve taken the logical step of bringing those brands together. For some time, a lot of our advertisements have been dual- branded, so that people can start seeing the brands together.”
The goal now is to build brand awareness without losing sight of the group’s main priority – delivering full back-up power solutions to its customers.
