BGEN is a leading technical engineering solutions provider offering specialist Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Control, and Automation (MEICA) capabilities.

This latest acquisition will enable M Group Services to rapidly advance its highly sought-after technical engineering solutions offering in its existing core markets in the energy, water, telecom and transport sectors, as well as expanding into new markets served by BGEN and further enhances M Group Services’ comprehensive platform of value-added infrastructure services expertise.
Through its nationwide network of offices and almost 1,500 employees, BGEN provides its multidisciplinary offering to a range of clients including National Grid, Thames Water, Scottish Water, and Anglian Water, which also have long-term partnerships with M Group Services.
M Group Services is committed to investing in BGEN, focusing on the growth and development of its workforce, training programs, and skill enhancement to further expand its platform capabilities.
Andrew Findlay, M Group Services’ Chief Executive, said: "BGEN is a business with a long trading heritage and an excellent reputation and culture that aligns with our own.
"In line with our strategy, the acquisition of BGEN significantly enhances the technical engineering capability of M Group Services, significantly deepening our ability to provide expert solutions for our existing clients and broad range of new clients, for today and in the future.
"Together we are even better placed to support the energy transition to net zero, leading the way in maintaining and enhancing essential infrastructure that is continually adapting to a rapidly changing world.
"I am very pleased to welcome the BGEN team to the M Group Services family."
