“Roughly ten years ago, we decided to shift our product lines to stay ahead of the demand for our palletizing products. We needed to expand into robotics and train a new workforce. To accomplish this, we partnered with AMT, who was referred to us by KUKA Robotics.
Our relationship with AMT has been very successful, and has provided an opportunity for us to grow. It has allowed us to offset spikes in needed capacity with AMT’s automation engineering talent. This relationship has certainly been a cost-effective solution for us, but also, we felt we had a partner to grow and support our business. AMT knew our end goal was to become self-sufficient and use them less over time, which has happened.
This partnership fit needs in their business, and it fit needs in our business as well. It has been a very successful relationship. From the beginning, we structured our partnership with AMT to be a win-win situation with professionalism and maximum transparency. We set that foundation in the beginning and it’s still valid today; the core values, goals, and professionalism are still valid today.”
