  • Debenhams: the Rise and Fall of a British Retail Institution Rupert Neate
    Debenhams: the rise and fall of a British retail institution Rupert Neate The Gaurdian.com 1 December 2020 Founded in 1778, Debenhams was one of the largest and most historic department store chains in the world. The business was formed by William Clark as a single high end drapers store at 44 Wigmore Street in London’s West End. It rose to become one of the biggest retailers in the UK with, at one point, more than 200 large stores across 18 countries and exclusive partnerships with some of the world’s best-known designers including Jasper Conran and Julien Macdonald. But on Tuesday, the shutters finally came down as administrators announced the chain would be wound down and all of its remaining 124 stores shut, putting potentially all of its 12,000 employees out of work. The demise of Debenhams comes just a day after Sir Philip Green’s Arcadia Group retail empire collapsed into administration, putting a further 13,000 jobs at risk. In the 1980s and 1990s both retailers had been part of the vast Burton Group, founded by Sir Montague Maurice Burton. Clark’s business remained just the single shop on Wigmore Street until 1813 when he teamed up with Suffolk businessman William Debenham, and expanded into two stores on opposite sides of the street. One was known as Debenham & Clark and the other known as Clark & Debenham. The first store outside London – and an exact replica of the original Wigmore Street shop – was opened in Cheltenham in 1818. “In the ensuing years the firm prospered from the Victorian fashion for family mourning by which widows and other female relatives adhered to a strict code of clothing and etiquette,” the company says on its website.

  • Enhance Innovation and Agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary
    Enhance innovation and agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary There’s no denying we live in uncertain and rapidly changing times and companies are looking for every opportunity to become more agile. Digital twins is a rapidly emerging technology that delivers to this end. Not to be confused as a mere dashboard, a digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical object, machine part, system, process or entire lifecycle. Digital twin technology enables real-time monitoring and control, the ability to learn with AI and ML, to autonomously update, self-heal, and even improve systems and designs over time. This paper seeks to achieve four objectives. First, to help the reader understand Digital twin technology and its potential. Second, to provide a structured way of looking at the various use cases and applications of this technology. Third, to feature Microsoft partners who have differentiated capabilities that bring digital twin visions to life. Fourth, to discuss the Azure Digital Twin platform and other investments from Microsoft in this space. Digital twin technology is commonly applied to manufacturing across key applications that span manufacturing scenarios/use-cases. The priority scenarios, or use cases, as they relate in Manufacturing are 1) Product, 2) Factory, 3) Supply Chain, and 4) Spaces. The top applications include configuration management, asset management, process control, performance management and simulation modeling. Configuration management tracks bills of materials, around assets as designed, manufactured, configured, and maintained. E.g. For complex & expensive assets like aircrafts this information is typically maintained by tail number. Asset management deals with telemetry of an asset itself and gives insight in to how something is working.

  • Employment Tribunals at a Final Hearing Reserved
    Case number: 2602342/2018 Reserved EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS BETWEEN: Claimant Respondent And Mr P Kibble Arcadia Group Limited AT A FINAL HEARING Held at: Nottingham On: 16 & 17 December 2019 and in chambers on 13 January 2020 Before: Employment Judge R Clark REPRESENTATION For the Claimant: Mr B Henry of Counsel For the Respondent: Mr S Wyeth of Counsel RESERVED JUDGMENT The judgment of the tribunal is that: - 1. The claim of breach of contract fails and is dismissed. REASONS 1. Introduction 1.1 This is a claim for damages alleging breach of contract. With effect from 9 June 2018, the claimant’s long period of employment with the respondent came to an end by reason of redundancy. He received the statutory redundancy entitlement and notice to which he was entitled under the Employment Rights Act 1996. 1 Case number: 2602342/2018 Reserved 1.2 The claimant’s claim is that those payments did not reflect the enhanced contractual entitlement he enjoyed as a result of two collective agreements made between his employer and his union, the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers (“USDAW”). The first agreement dates back to 1976 (“the 1976 agreement”). This was subject to a more recent variation in the second agreement signed off in 1996 (“the 1996 agreement”). 1.3 There is no dispute that those agreements applied to the claimant when his employment commenced in 1981 as they still did when the 1996 agreement was reached. There is no dispute that they provide for enhanced severance terms in case of redundancy and, to that extent, quantum is agreed.

Editor's Summary . Cases Referred to . Judgment . [1] Intellectual property ­ Trade marks ­ Registration of shape as trade mark ­ Where shape is not intended to be used to distinguish owner's products from those of another, it cannot be regarded as a trade mark ­ Application for expungement from trade marks register therefore allowed. Editor's Summary Both parties involved in the present matter were players in the pharmaceutical industry. The Appellants sought the upholding of a trade mark for the shape of a tablet, and a finding that the Respondent had infringed the trade mark. The Respondent imported a tablet with the same composition and shape as that of the Appellants. In the court a quo, the Respondent applied for the expungement from the trade mark register of the shape trade mark. The Appellants launched a counter­application for relief for trade mark infringement. The latter application failed while that of the Respondent succeeded. Held ­ Interested parties may apply to court for the removal of an entry wrongly made or remaining on the trade mark register. The first question posed by the Court was whether the Appellants' shape mark constituted a trade mark in terms of section 10(1) of the Trade Marks Act 194 of 1993 ("the Act").

David Lockwood, Chief Executive Officer, said: “I have been enormously impressed by the way in which our people have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic and continued to prioritise meeting the needs of our customers. Nevertheless, while demand for our critical services has remained resilient overall, the additional costs incurred and inefficiencies created have impacted our profitability. Our operating profit performance in the first half reflects this COVID-19 impact as well as disposals, the impact of government insourcing of Magnox and Dounreay, and weak trading in civil aviation. “In my first three months at Babcock I have spent time seeing many parts of the business. Our strengths are clear. We have many high-quality businesses, with a deep understanding of our customers, operating in markets where demand for our expertise is strong.

  • Aggregates Market Investigation
    LAFARGE AGGREGATES LIMITED AND LAFARGE CEMENT UK LIMITED OVERVIEW SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE COMPETITION COMMISSION’S STATEMENT OF ISSUES NON-CONFIDENTIAL VERSION April, 2012 K&E 91146101.1 OVERVIEW SUBMISSION IN RESPONSE TO THE COMPETITION COMMISSION’S STATEMENT OF ISSUES 1. This Submission is made by Lafarge Aggregates Limited and Lafarge Cement UK Limited (together, “Lafarge”) in response to the Competition Commission’s (“CC”) Statement of Issues dated 8 March 2012. A. Executive Summary 2. The timing of the CC market investigation into the supply or acquisition of aggregates, cement and ready-mix concrete (“RMX”) (the “MIR”) presents a series of challenges for both the CC and market participants, including Lafarge: Market Decline. The MIR takes place against the backdrop of an economic downturn since 2008 which has been longer and more severe than any experienced by the construction materials industry within the last 30 years. The reduction in volumes has accelerated again in 2012 with year-on-year declines for the first quarter in excess of 10 per cent for aggregates and RMX, while GB cement volumes appear likely to decline or to remain flat at best in 2012. Industry forecasts do not predict any change in these trends before at least 2014, at which point demand is expected still to remain below levels seen in 2009. Any potential improvements will develop from a low base, resulting in sustained and significant levels of overcapacity. Combination of Lafarge and Tarmac. Lafarge announced in February 2011 the proposed combination of its UK construction materials business with that of Tarmac Limited (the “Proposed JV”).
