Facility upgrades are being discussedwith-
in the management team. These upgrades are
focused on establishing the infrastructure to
support the targeted growth.
“The in-house processes aren’t likely to un-
dergo significant changes”, Good said, “be-
cause they’re so highly specified by oversight
organizations like NUPIC and NAIC.”
A drive to make products more user-
friendly is a goal – making actuators lighter
and changing some of their controls, for in-
stance – but industry standards for main-
tenance cycles, testing and standardization
don’t leave a great deal of wiggle room for
novelty.
The rigidity in some places, however,
doesn’t impede the overall optimism for the
future.
“I see a constant growth pattern,” Good
said. “We struggled for the first couple years
after being acquired by Rotork, but we got
through those growing pains. The last two
years have been growth each year and I see
us, with some of the new potential products
we’re coming up with, getting a bigger hold
in the marketplace and I see our customers
relying on us more for engineering capabili-
ties.
“Five years from now, we’re comfortably
approaching our goal of doubling our rev-
enue, we’ve done our expansion and we’re
looking for more.”
