A problem shared brings new insights and opportunities

Sailing at SeaWarleggan Finance is an independent consultancy based in Kent. The company has been established to offer clients a wide range of services with assured confidentiality. A strategic network of partners enables us to source expertise which complements our own knowledge.

Founder Chris Best spent 30 years in the Automotive Industry where he rose to the highest levels. A recognised technical expert and effective project director, he launched many new products including one of the earliest "drive by wire" digital electronic control systems. A renowned problem solver, he developed procedures manuals from the ground up and was a leading figure in the application of Quality Techniques in industrial situations.

Sailing at SeaChris views engineering as part art and part science brought together for the purpose of making a profit. There is always more than one solution path available and we characterise them into "precisely approximate" and "approximately precise". Detailed and precise analysis is only appropriate when situations are stable and the input data accuracy and potential rewards will justify the costs and timescales needed. We always look to gain maximum benefit cost effectively in true Pareto style, or as we say "approximately precise".

Whilst most at home in Industrial settings, particularly precision engineering and volume manufacturing, we have acquired a wide range of expertise and contacts including television, transport, retail, telecoms sales, medical supplies and food production. We take pride in our innovative and creative approach to each situation and always welcome new challenges.

Chris Best's CV

Sailing at SeaDuring his time in Industry, Chris was only too aware that the efforts of even great teams come to nothing without the necessary finance. Project assessment is invariably conducted remotely and based solely on the contents of a few sheets of paper. A vital part of any project is structuring both the activities and the information to ensure that the funding can be secured. We have experience in creating effective Business Plans in a number of industries and are happy to provide a free initial consultation.
