A Spotlight on Success
Posted on Apr 30, 2007
How does a company transform itself to an innovative, outward-facing organization? For Die-Tech, Inc., the York Haven manufacturer of precision metal stampings, the first step was benchmarking. Rather than settle for the minimum required to maintain its quality and technical certifications, the company took a hard, critical look at the comparisons it was gathering.
"You're first fight is always with data," says company President Richard W. Dennis. "We were guilty of a mindset that what we were finding didn't apply to us because we were different. But benchmarking showed the chinks in our armor."
Next, Die-Tech engaged a consultant that recommended a more robust training and career/personal development menu for the company's more than 100 employees. That process began eight years ago. Today, the spirit of innovation permeates the company culture. Among its key elements:
- Significant exporting
- Regular customer interface
- New product introductions
- On- and off-site training
Yet another element in Die-Tech's outreach is Dennis' service on the MANTEC board of directors, where his enthusiasm for learning and growing has impressed John Lloyd.
"I'm continually amazed at how much he reaches out to take on new initiatives -- simultaneously in many cases," Lloyd says. "He's built an infrastructure that enables his people to absorb those changes."
