What WSP Engineering does

WSP Engineering, operating under the trade and legal name Irideum, is a UK-based engineering consultancy and project management firm founded in 2018 and headquartered in Hinckley, Leicestershire (postcode LE10 3BH). The company specializes in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector, delivering four core service lines: Health & Safety CDM (Construction Design and Management compliance across pre-construction, planning, construction, and handover), Project Management (feasibility through implementation and review), Engineering Consultancy (PUWER and machinery safety, workplace safety and HAZOP, process flow, and design recommendations), and Turnkey Projects (end-to-end delivery, business improvement, and CAPEX investment execution). It also offers specialized solutions such as an Automated FSDU Packing Line for logistics operations and a Health and Safety Training solution.

The company's offering centers on complete asset lifecycle management, combining engineering expertise, business improvement, and project delivery tailored to individual client requirements. Its underlying capability is domain-specialized professional services rather than proprietary software or technology platforms; differentiation rests on combined team experience across FMCG categories and integrated delivery from concept to handover. The company holds multiple ISO certifications, though specific standards are not detailed in the source material.

Commercially, WSP Engineering employs a direct enterprise sales motion, engaging major UK brands for CAPEX investments, operational improvements, and turnkey project delivery. Revenue is generated through professional services and managed services engagements — engineering consultancy, project management, turnkey project delivery fees, and health and safety training — priced on a bespoke, contact-based basis with no public pricing disclosed. Marketing is content-driven, using case studies (e.g., Hotel Chocolat's 430,000 sqft warehouse project, an automated packing line for a global logistics business) and organic social channels. The company reports 300+ projects completed and serves clients primarily within the United Kingdom.

Comparable to WSP Engineering in offering integrated project delivery and engineering consultancy, though at significantly larger scale and broader sector coverage.

Comparable to WSP Engineering as a UK-rooted engineering services firm serving complex industrial clients, though operating at substantially greater scale and broader scope.

Direct peers

Closely comparable to WSP Engineering's project management plus consultancy offering, though operating at materially larger scale and broader sector mix.

Comparable to WSP Engineering in offering turnkey project delivery and consultancy services, though Mace operates at much larger scale and broader scope.
• PM Group: Ireland-headquartered international engineering and project management firm with deep, established specialization in FMCG, food, beverage, and life-sciences manufacturing facilities.
