Our Results
No Capacity
An OEM in the durable goods industry was experiencing production capacity constraints. After meeting with the industrial engineer, they were hosted at six plants and given tours. Within months, the OEM had contracted with five of the six SME and able to meet their production demands.
Reshoring Product
An entrepreneur who was ready to reshore his kitchen appliance, met our industrial engineer at a trade show. Within a week, five plant visits with company executives with the needed capabilities were conducted.
Time Sensitive Delivery
An OEM in the packaging industry was facing a critical delay in a key component blocking delivery of a new conveyor system. After contacting our industrial engineer, the OEM had a list of four potential suppliers with the needed capabilities and the ability to respond immediately.
