Today's all about celebrating our partnerships with OEMs - that's Original Equipment Manufacturers for those scratching their heads. It’s a massive industry here in the UK and globally, and we’ve been in the thick of it for over 30 years.   We’ve been alongside various industries, offering top-notch engineering support and manufacturing services. Lately, it’s become clear just how many challenges OEMs are up against - like complex supply chain issues, a shortage of skilled workers, and stiff competition from budget manufacturers.   Here’s a quick win story for you: We hit a snag with a supplier recently, which almost knocked our deadlines off course by weeks. But, thanks to our brilliant procurement team, we sourced the necessary materials in a jiffy and kept everything on schedule. It was a real save!   And that’s just one of the reason that a team on 100+ works in YOUR favour. Whatever the problem, people in our team have come across it before and can find workarounds and get your problem first time and on time!   Facing similar hurdles? Drop me a message, or better yet, let's meet up for a coffee and chat about it. #OEMs #OriginalEquipmentManufacturers #EngineeringSupport

Nice article!! Governments of developing countries like to imitate whatever developed countries are doing in the name of progress, hence the emphasis on capital spending despite having much more labor. However, the quality of labor is also quite poor due to underinvestment in education. The government and private industry in developing countries cannot invest in education because they are investing in capital goods, hence the vicious cycle of overuse of capital investments, underuse of the abundant labor resources, and underinvestment in education. Investing in education -- including vocational training -- is an important way to break this cycle.

When it comes to building material companies, I notice quite a few young professionals who feel overwhelmed in their new Sales roles. Not all manufacturers operate the same, and they definitely don’t train or offer the same systems to their employees. Something seems off, and with today’s possibilities, confidence ought to the sentiment. How are manufacturers keeping up with optimizing their operations?

A great read about the loss of manufacturing in the US and how we must get it back. #madeinAmerica #domestic #manufacturing #reshoring

I find myself in a unique position. I went to the greatest packaging school in America, Clemson University. I got my degree in Packaging Science. From there, I went into the aerospace industry as a Packaging Engineer where I had the opportunity to design custom packaging for cutting edge defense and missile systems. After a few more years as a Packaging Engineer I decided to make a switch to the dark side and go into sales. I made the switch because I love interacting with new people and I love solving complex problems. Packaging sales was the perfect blend of my technical background and my love of people. Now I spend my days working with manufacturers, distribution centers and food processors on improving packaging processes, reducing costs, and freeing up valuable floor space. Here are just a few highlights from 2023: -Project to reduce packout time by over 40% -Reduced stretch film costs in large DC by over 35% -Process improvement project that improved loads processed per hour by 22% SupplyOne, Inc. has many tools in our tool belt to achieve our #1 mission, which is to make your business more profitable. If you know anyone who works in Operations or who deals with packaging or packaging processes I would love to meet them! #packagingengineer #processimprovement #packaging #operations
