OMS are celebrating 25 wonderful years in business this month!!

25 years ago OMS started life, it started as a consultancy business where our founder, Clive Ormerod, could offer the skills he had acquired in the civil engineering and construction sector to businesses who needed to access his expertise.

A quarter of a century later OMS will be celebrating with Clive hosting a special celebration lunch with specially invited guests to celebrate with the team of today. So on the 15^th March everyone will gather at OMS as our way of acknowledging customers, partners, suppliers and those who’ve worked with OMS along the way to say “thank you”.

With the drive and passion of our Managing Director and the entire team to make OMS the training and consultancy partner of choice here in the East Midlands (and further afield)!  They will be celebrating on the 15^th March with all the organisations who have long been associated with the business partnerships forged over the years which have contributed to our success. The loyalty of our clients is something we’re particularly gratified of, people who return year after year to us. And of course, the team, those who work on behalf of OMS, they’ve also ensured our continued success today.

Like any company, there have been challenging times and OMS are no different, however we are extremely proud of the many accolades, accomplishments and the support which we have given our clients and the local community.  We have developed our training and consultancy portfolio enormously and seamlessly adapted our offerings when difficult times have arisen, like a pandemic where face to face training and client site consultant visits was popped on hold!

Our timeline below details all of the stages we have gone through over the years to ensure OMS has been in operation, the things that make us accomplished and a preferred service provider that we are today.

Here’s to celebrating 25 amazing years in business.
