As first reported by InterGame, the JPM Group has confirmed that it is to close its Cardiff facility as part of a new structural reoganisation.
JPM’s Cardiff facility will close with a number of staff relocating to its Birmingham headquarters, home of the company’s games development team.
“Internationally, the gaming market is transforming at a phenomenal rate and it’s crucial that JPM’s structure enables it to embrace the many opportunities that continue to present themselves,” JPM’s Simon Herbert explained. “Recently JPM outsourced its manufacturing to ensure resources can be focused on content development and the support of trading partners.
“In such a dynamic environment we need to adapt constantly to ensure that our customers and affiliates receive the very best that JPM has to offer.”
JPM’s goal is for the reorganisation to provide customers with even better after-sales service and support through the collaboration of an experienced and wider knowledge base extending to both new and traditional products.
“In the past year JPM has had some outstanding successes but there is no place for complacency,” continued Herbert. “Our future will be built upon exceptionally performing games for use in a wide variety of gaming applications. Our games will be augmented through investment in our own team and, where appropriate, strategic alliances with best-of-breed third party content providers, delivering a wider and more compelling portfolio to attract and grow our customers’ player base.”
