We want to always add value with the technology we’re bringing. Working with InSource and using our Extreme Factory Makeover award monies, we looked at all the pillars. We looked at the process. We looked at the people. This project helped me help manufacturing operations. For IT, that’s our job always. Make things better for the rest of the community.
