South Lanarkshire vehicle inspection firm acquired by professional services business

Professional services and technology business Davies Group has acquired Scottish motor inspections and engineering business BMTS for an undisclosed sum.

The East Kilbride-based firm provides vehicle inspection and expert witness services to the insurance, legal and private sectors.

BMTS will become part of Stoke-on-Trent based Davies' existing specialist motor engineering business which offers desktop and field engineering services to insurance clients.

Kevin Miles will continue to lead the day-to-day operations of BMTS, reporting to Davies head of motor engineering and supply chain Amy Isherwood.

Dan Saulter, group chief executive at Davies, said: “The BMTS team have an excellent reputation in the market and bring a wealth of knowledge and new technical skills to Davies.

"The deal extends our motor engineering reach to Scotland, UK and I’m pleased to be able to offer our clients our enhanced proposition.

"Broadening our capability and adding deeper domain expertise for our clients is a central plank of our growth strategy.”

Globally, Davies has more than 4,000 staff, with operating centres across the UK, Ireland, Bermuda, the US and Canada.
