Measurement Systems

What Measurement Systems does

Measurement Systems (legal entity Measys Group Ltd) is a privately held UK distributor and systems integrator of industrial measurement and data acquisition equipment, headquartered in Newbury, Berkshire. Founded circa 1992 with claimed operational history of over 35 years, the company operates as the exclusive UK distributor for Measurement Computing (MCC) and also distributes WebDAQ, ICPCON, Hobo, Data Translation, and Digilent product lines. Its catalog spans over 600 SKUs organized into data loggers (remote, temperature, energy, Hobo, InTemp cold chain), data acquisition systems (USB, serial, modular, high-speed, fieldbus including Modbus, Profibus, ProfiNet, EtherCAT, BACnet, CANopen, DeviceNet), sensors and meters (temperature, humidity, gas, current, pressure, motion, meteorological), environmental monitoring solutions, industrial data communication devices, intelligent controllers (MTCP), and industrial IoT/GSM remote monitoring technology.

The business sells primarily through a Shopify e-commerce storefront (measurementsystems.co.uk), UK free-phone line (0800 048 1057), international phone, and live chat, with free UK delivery on orders above £500 and international shipping to over 100 countries. Pricing is quote-based rather than publicly listed, and the company offers free technical support for the life of each product, system integration/scoping services for customer-specific applications, and a money-back guarantee. Revenue is generated through hardware and equipment resale (primary) and ancillary professional services for specification and integration (secondary), with end customers distributed across industrial/manufacturing, research and academia, and healthcare/cold chain verticals.

With only 1-10 employees disclosed and no funding, M&A, or leadership changes on record, Measurement Systems is best characterized as a lean, technically specialized UK reseller whose value proposition rests on multi-vendor catalog breadth, exclusive MCC distribution rights, and accumulated integration expertise rather than proprietary technology or scale economics.

Direct peers

• RS Components: A major UK and global broad-line electronics and industrial components distributor serving engineers and industrial buyers. Overlaps directly with Measurement Systems' DAQ, sensor, and metering catalog from a customer and product standpoint.
• Campbell Scientific: UK subsidiary of Campbell Scientific, specialising in environmental data loggers, weather stations, and ocean science monitoring systems. Directly comparable product overlap with Measurement Systems' environmental and ocean-science offerings.
• Farnell / element14: UK-headquartered broad-line electronics distributor owned by Premier Farnell/Newark. Competes head-to-head with Measurement Systems for measurement, sensor, and DAQ sales to industrial and academic buyers.
• Mouser Electronics: Global authorised electronics distributor offering sensors, DAQ boards, and industrial communication devices. Direct competitor for SMB and engineering buyer orders across Measurement Systems' product range.
• Digi-Key Electronics: Global high-service electronics component distributor with a deep sensor, instrumentation, and DAQ portfolio. Competes on catalog breadth, online experience, and international shipping — overlapping directly with Measurement Systems' customer base.
• Omega Engineering: Specialist distributor and manufacturer of process measurement and control instruments including sensors, data loggers, and meters. Highly comparable to Measurement Systems in portfolio mix and customer segments (industrial, research, environmental).

Broad incumbents

• Keysight Technologies: Global leader in electronic test and measurement instrumentation. Sells oscilloscopes, signal analysers, and DAQ products overlapping with Measurement Systems' Measurement Computing / Digilent portfolio through direct and channel sales.
• Phoenix Contact: Global manufacturer of industrial automation, connection, and fieldbus/interface technology. Overlaps with Measurement Systems' data-communication and fieldbus gateway lineup at the product level, competing for industrial automation budgets.
• National Instruments (NI): Major manufacturer of PC-based DAQ systems, modular instruments, and test/measurement software. Sells directly and through channel partners — a broader incumbent that competes partly through its authorised distributors, including potentially Measurement Systems' principals.

Emerging players

• Adafruit Industries: Maker/DIY electronics retailer and small-batch hardware developer. Adjacent rather than direct — competes for the educational, hobbyist, and low-end prototyping end of Measurement Systems' research/academic buyer base.
