Bullet Lifts Joins Classic Lifts Team as Part of Latest Andwis Group Acquisition

The andwis. group extends expertise and regional coverage with the addition of Watertite Building Services and Bullet Lift Services and Training Solutions.

The andwis. group has transformed from an M&E foundation 12 months ago into 5 service lines today, including lift maintenance, entrance and access technology, HVAC and fire and security. These service lines are strengthened through three further investments in Watertite Heating Limited, Bullet Lift Services Ltd and Bullet Training Services Limited (“Bullet”) to complete a successful year of development for the group.

Founded in 2003, Bullet will join Classic Lifts to further strengthen our presence across the West Midlands for lift maintenance, repair and modernisation services. Bullet’s focus on training, recruitment and accreditation aligns with andwis. Group’s focus on upskilling its workforce and will be the foundation for the “andwis academy” in 2024. 

Jenny Larkin, continuing as Managing Director of Bullet and taking on the role of Regional Director for Classic Lifts in the Midlands, said “we are delighted to be joining andwis. Bullet has thrived through the team’s collective focus on our clients through service excellence. Going forward, we have a great opportunity to accelerate our development and client impact as part of the andwis. group.”

Adrian Crane – Managing Director for Classic Lifts said “We are pleased to welcome the Bullet Lifts team to Classic Lifts and believe the combination of our two strong operations in the Midlands supported by our significant investment in new management systems will enable us to deliver exceptional service to all of our customers. Our increased coverage will enable us to become one of the leading lift installation and service providers in the Region.”

Jonathan Simpson-Dent, Chair of the andwis. group, said: “Watertite and Bullet have both built unparalleled reputations in their respective sectors and markets by delivering consistently high quality services and accreditation assurance for their clients. Both teams embody our andwis. guiding principles of integrity, dynamism and partnership, making them great additions to the group as we continue to build a truly unique multi-service offering delivered through direct best-in-class networks.” 

In 2024 andwis. will continue to invest in other industry-leading businesses as it broadens its service line and geographic presence across the technical services landscape under its commitment of Expertise, built in. In addition, the group is investing in technology, training, development and skills across its direct network of experts. 

The andwis. group looks forward to providing further updates on its progress to become the UK’s leading benchmark for technical building services
