Mazak Corporation/Nexus Precision and Speed Keep High-Tech Shop Profitable

摘要

High Tech Turning Company is a small job shop turning out some pretty high-tech parts. Established in 1985, the company has 25 employees and an enviable compound growth rate of 30 percent. According to president and owner Paul Heanue, the company has grown steadily, but it is not immune from price pressures from its customer base. "Cost in this economy is more and more of an issue. No one wants to carry inventory, so everyone wants immediate, make-to-order delivery. We have the quality and the competitive price no matter what."
