About Us
JohnDoyle.pngMoreVision was founded by John Doyle BSc(eng)., Ceng., MIMechE.,  ACGI was born in 1965 and is a graduate of London’s Imperial College with some 25 years of experience in solving engineering problems. After graduating he joined Rolls Royce where he attained chartered status with the Institute of Mechanical Engineers. Having risen to the position of Chief Mechanical Engineer with Bombardier Transportation he started his own engineering consultancy in 1995 called MoreVision. It specialises in engineering analyses applied to railway vehicles, construction equipment, oil and gas plant, cranes and mechanical items for theme parks. His client list includes Shell, Bombardier, Siemens, Volvo and Disney. He won a UK Government SMART competition for software innovation and his ExcelCalcs website attracts over 18,000 unique visitors every month. MoreVision draws on the experience of associates to boost and compliment core skills. Each associate operates independently but working together we have a stronger offering to our clients without high overheads typical of larger engineering consultancies.
