Mulcahy Engineering ENGINEERING After 40-odd years it remains very much a family firm, but Avondale-based Mulcahy Engineering has developed a nationwide clientele on the back of its focus on quality service and state-of-the-art plant, and today it is recognised as a New Zealand engineering industry leader. It has achieved this by offering its clients the complete package, from design to production, around the principle of employing the engineering industry’s most experienced personnel operating the most advanced plant. Murray Mulcahy founded Mulcahy Engineering in 1980, basing it in West Auckland, and has built it into a substantial business with a staff of 140 housed in seven buildings covering around 6000sqm in Charann Place. Today, Murray’s son Kayne serves as managing director, and Murray is still active as a director. A high-tech feature of the Mulcahy Engineering business is its laser-cutting capacity, but its services extend across the full range of engineering fabrication, and it has clients in the food, dairy, materials handling, manufacturing, marine and general engineering industries. “Our prime business is servicing original equipment manufacturers under contract, and our plant includes some of the most advanced technologies in the engineering world,” Mulcahy Engineering business development manager Logan Hansen says. “This gives us the capacity to deliver the most complex and large-scale projects in the shortest possible time frame.” As well as laser cutting, the company’s plant capacities cover design, automated welding, pressing, punching, fabrication, machining, polishing and assembly. Mulcahy Engineering specialises in fully integrated engineering solutions covering every aspect, from design to finished product, and the phrase ‘Only the Best’ is enshrined in the company’s culture. “We employ the best and most skilled personnel, and we acquire and utilise the best plant and equipment, and it’s part of our identity that we stay at the leading edge of engineering technology,” Logan says. He adds that Mulcahy Engineering’s reputation has been built on its comprehensive client services, with its management systems certified to ISO9001 standards, while its lineup of satisfied clients represent a who’s who of engineering-dependent businesses. “We’re able to deliver on one-off projects right out to full manufacturing partnerships, and our point of difference is that we offer a total solution to our clients. “Another key to our success is our flexibility: as our clients’ markets change, so we can change our services and capacities to meet the new challenges,” Logan says.
