Fareham based Taylor Made Training Solutions and its distinctive livery, synonymous with parent company Taylor Made Computer Solutions, has adopted a new image and ownership to reflect the huge success the company has established in the corporate arena.

Rebranded ‘The Performance Academy’, the change in image and name is an exciting development for the company that started in 2005 as a division providing IT training for individuals and technicians, from businesses based in the Solent region, on the use of applications and technical systems.

Miles Henson and Philip Ferrar joined the division in 2008 after 3 successful years, and diversified the business pursuing a mantra of Developing People and Performance.

Using Thomas International’s PPA analysis tool as a method of helping clients understand how individuals in their organisations behave, communicate and interact with one another, their success really took the training division to great new heights.

Having won business from, and working with companies such as, Baxter Healthcare, CSL Behring, BMW, HSBC, Doosan and numerous Council and Government bodies, to name a few, The Performance Academy has had a great launch pad for its first year in business, and is on target to reach its stated aims.

The company, now trading as a stand alone company from Taylor Made, will continue to focus on delivering world-class people, team and corporate strategic development for both UK and international organisations.

Nigel Taylor, Managing Director of Taylor Made Computer Solutions, commented: “I am absolutely delighted that Phil and Miles have been able to take this division and make it into something literally world class. There is now no holding them back on the scope of what they can do, and who they will deal with, and I believe the rebranding really reflects the focus of this business both now and in the future.”

Miles Henson, the new Managing Director of The Performance Academy, added: “Taylor Made Training Solutions has given us the perfect platform to launch The Performance Academy from, and we now have the opportunity to build upon the excellent reputation that Taylor Made has.

In the current economic climate we passionately believe that now is the time for organisations to invest in their people, as they need to achieve more with less. Now is the time for businesses to invest in things that really matter, their people.

To say the excitement is palpable is an understatement as we move this business to an expanding arena. We will continue to work closely with Nigel and the team at Fareham, and are really looking forward to establishing The Performance Academy as a brand known for quality and delivery of results.”
