The Config Team has recorded 32% year-on-year growth while increasing its workforce by a third throughout 2019.

The Skelmersdale company designs, develops and implements supply chain systems and has more than doubled its turnover since 2017 on the back of an of an uptake in automation and digitalisation.

Over the last 12 months, 18 new people have been recruited in a variety of technical and support roles across consultancy, product development, HR, finance, sales and marketing. This brings the total company employees to more than double the number it had in 2017, with plans to increase to a team of more than 90 by the end of 2020.

Andrew Moses, managing director of The Config, said: "The growth over the last 12 months is testament to the hard work and commitment from everyone within the team. In order to maintain our reputation, and continue to deliver exceptional customer projects, we have undergone an intensive recruitment process over the last 12 months to ensure we have the right people in place to maintain the high levels of customer delivery we are known for, while supporting further growth.”
