Since 2012, MVIS has worked tirelessly to become the UK`s leading supplier of original 5 colour portable VMS units, and have even designed and produced first of its kind solutions with our dedicated and talented team. We were first in the public’s eye in 2012 when it came to providing units for the 2012 Olympics and since then, our loyalty to customers has not depleted, and saw us investing in a large build of units back in 2015 in order to meet the demand from new and recurring customers thanks to our award winning customer service, and devotion to perfection.
All units we supply have been built in-house by our trained team, and this has seen the company housing over 600 units. From long term works to private events, the portfolio of jobs the team have delivered over these last 9 years is overwhelming, we continue to grow and develop to ensure that we remain the UK`s most trusted provider of portable intelligent transport systems.
The 4th July marks MVIS` birthday and this year we thought that the team needed a celebration and a thank you for everything that we, as a work family, have been through over the last unpredictable year.
With this in mind, we decided to throw a 9 year birthday party for the company in our Matlock-based depot to celebrate all that we have achieved over the last 9 years and to remind ourselves of what we, as a team, are capable of, especially under the unique circumstances that we have endured with lockdowns, restrictions and updates over the last 16 months.
Keeping staff morale high has always been something that we want to strive towards. With remote working from home being no exception to our devotion to our staff`s mental health and wellbeing. We have made sure that all of our team continue to feel valued by using Zoom and Microsoft Teams during the lockdowns not only to our advantage when it comes to team building, but to also remind all of us what normality really feels like.
Being given the ‘all clear’ for parties of 30 people with social distancing measures in place, we thought that we would grasp this opportunity and have a true ‘MVIS-style’ get-together, something that we have been deprived of since March 2020. This party allowed us to let our hair down and rekindle relationships in person with people who may have not seen each other face to face for many months.
The party meant that some of our team who have been working from home were able to finally sit down with those who have joined our team during the last year and in general, reminisce with each other as we have had many exiting announcements from people such as; moving homes, new additions joining families and even engagements.
Celebrating the place that has brought us all an endless amount of memories and relationships formed together was the perfect transition into life heading towards normality, whatever the ‘new normal’ may be.
