CoGoGo presents a rare opportunity to acquire Auroras Automation Limited, a well-established and trusted business specialising in industrial automation services. With over 10 years of verifiable trading history and approximately £40,000 worth of assets, this business offers a robust foundation for a new owner to expand upon.

Operating within the manufacturing and systems integration sector, the business thrives on strong relationships with factories and integrators, delivering essential Third-Party Acceptance Testing, Operator Training, and PLC Programming & Modifications.

This business operates from home and on-site, making it an ideal acquisition for an individual or company looking to expand within the UK industrial automation market. The business owner or manager must either send their staff or attend the factory themselves to ensure smooth operations. However, once a relationship is established with the client and the necessary hardware is in place, working from home may become an option.

Key services include:

  • Third-Party Acceptance Testing – Ensuring factory systems meet required specifications through detailed verification and compliance checks. This service is highly trusted, requiring attention to detail and persistence rather than technical expertise.
  • Post-Installation Support & Operator Training – Following the acceptance testing, the team is well-placed to train factory staff, ensuring the smooth adoption of new equipment.
  • PLC Programming & Modifications – Providing backup programming support to systems integrators, ensuring projects stay on track even when in-house teams are unavailable. Custom modifications can enhance efficiency and deliver significant production gains.
The business model is scalable, with opportunities to expand the workforce and offer additional automation-related services.

Tenure & Assets

  • Fully equipped with £50,000 worth of assets
  • Business Only meaning it is a remote operation with minimal overheads (no physical premises required)
  • Flexible working arrangements, allowing for project-based employment of additional personnel
Staff & Operations

  • Run by the owner with support from family and contract staff as needed
  • Efficient two-person testing process that multiplies efficiency by 13x over single-person testing (not always guaranteed)
  • Training and knowledge-sharing allow for rapid skill acquisition in the field
We are advised that:

  • The business generates strong revenue from contract-based services
  • Daily rates for PLC programming start at £450+VAT per day for remote work
  • Process optimisation can unlock significant production gains for clients, leading to repeat business and high-value projects
Growth Potential

  1. Expand staffing to take on additional testing and training contracts
  2. Leverage existing relationships with systems integrators to secure more projects
  3. Develop training programs to upskill new staff and increase service offerings**
  4. Offer process optimisation consulting to further increase client ROI
The owner is seeking a buyer who can build upon the solid foundation already in place. This is an excellent opportunity for an entrepreneur or existing business looking to expand into automation services with an established reputation and proven track record. Additionally, the buyer can expect to recoup their investment within just three months.
