A manufacturer has cemented its commitment to the North East origin by purchasing its headquarters.

MSP, which specialises in precision software and part manufacturing services, works big name clients including Safran, BAE Systems and four Formula 1 teams.

Now MSP, which stands for Metrology Software Products Ltd,  has bought the freehold of its site in Alnwick, the base where it started out in 2002 and has grown to become a key name in global advanced manufacturing.

The fast-growing company is the creator of the NC-Checker and NC-PerfectPart products, which have delivered significant time, cost and efficiency savings for major manufacturers around the world.

Despite experiencing global success, MSP has remained committed to its Northumberland home, where founders Tony Brown and Peter Hammond relocated from the South to establish the company. 

The pair said the purchase of its Greensfield Court base, from Northumberland Estates, confirms its long-term future in the town and its ongoing contribution to the local and regional economy, where they will continue to create jobs for people and attract and retain talent in the North East.

Through purchase of the building, MSP also becomes landlord to three existing tenants – Alnwick Farming Consultants, Scottish Woodlands Limited and Renal Services º£½ÇÊÓÆµ Limited  - all of whom are set to stay for the long term.

Peter Hammond, technical director of MSP, said: “Purchasing the Greensfield Court site means we can put down roots for the long-term in Alnwick, where Tony and I moved with our families back in 2002 to found MSP.
