I do apologise i think it was either Car Lighting or Car Electrical Services . Was there a A T Gittins on the Mosely road on the left hand side heading out of the city.

Car Lighting Services were on the Moseley road as you say. I think the owner was Harold Brown.

I was recruited in 1989 to Join Lucas Engineering and Systems Ltd in Shirley, based at the Research Centre. This was headed up by Professor John Parnaby, http://www.valuedrivendesign.co.uk/managementguide/frontmatter.aspx and we ran the mainframes, across the UK and also had 400 engineers going out to do Manufacturing systems redesign taskforces, across Lucas sites and those of suppliers and customers. The techniques used would later be called "lean manufacturing". LE&S ltd was later bought by CSC (a computer science company) who ran the mainframes. By that time I'd left and gone to Lucas NSF in Keighley (Which is now NSF controls) and then Lucas in Burnley (Now part of TRW).
