We conduct facility material and information flow studies. These studies include evaluating a customer's material flow from incoming/receiving through production to shipping. Providing a "Game Plan" for companies considering a plant renovation or expansion. We address assembly, warehouse, distribution, stockroom packaging areas, plus many special applications.

Our experience, design capability, product selectivity and customer base, make us one of the leading system integrators of material flow in industry.

We have been designing and installing Material Handling Systems for over 40 years. These years of experience have given us time enough to know what obstacles to expect and how to best design and tailor projects to accomplish the latest state-of-the-art enhancements for our customers.

Over the years we have witnessed many changes in American Industry. We have assisted numerous companies in their introduction and planning of "JUST IN TIME" (JIT) Production, Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM). This has been accomplished by integrating many of their facility components in order to develop a continuous material and data flow. This philosophy incorporates factory automation of stock rooms and assembly lines in the case of manufacturing and warehouse and order selection in the case of warehouse distribution.

As computer technology developed in industry, we paralleled the information and data flow with the material flow to accomplish complete integrated systems.
