About Dr Barry E Reeve

I have spent over 40 years in the metallurgical engineering industry, mainly in aluminium processing, with the world’s largest producer of aluminium products, and Fortune 100 Company, ALCOA, or with the DAVY group of Companies involved in contract engineering for some of the world’s largest aluminium projects.
Nothing gives me more pleasure than assisting others to make the right decisions with regard to capital expenditure projects, process or management issues based on my practical experience and academic background.

I am confident that with this experience, qualifications and passion plus working with like minded Associates, I can assist Organisations achieve their objectives via independent, authoritative, high quality and cost effective consultancy services during these challenging times.
