Redspy also wrote the full business plan for a new overseas OEM in 2020, covering market analysis, product planning/positioning and sales volume forecast by territory. Redspy also introduced the OEM to many of their major UK suppliers.
Redspy is also used by agencies who are pitching for business from car manufacturers. We are asked to help identify the key issues facing both manufacturers and specific models, in order that agencies can deepen their understanding.
Technology Sourcing
Redspy has close links with all the major automotive research and funding organisations in the UK. It also has a very wide knowledge of specialist UK engineering companies developing every part of the BEV powertrain. Overseas companies have used this network to find UK technology partners, and UK specialist companies have used it to find overseas customers. A recent example is an emerging UK manufacturer of EV traction motors who Jay Nagley, MD of Redspy, introduced to an Asian company that will start manufacturing the motors under licence in 2022.
Grant Funding
Redspy has extensive experience of advising on, and then writing, bids to access UK government funding. In 2021, it wrote its biggest bid yet, which resulted in a successful grant application of over £12 million for the development of new technology for an EV powertrain.
