The struggle to get products to market as quickly as possible isn’t new. Manufacturers have always battled against inconsistent quality and inefficient processes. But today, the battle is even harder to win. Competition is tougher, market conditions are volatile, and labor is scarce.
Across the board, manufacturers are being asked to do more with less. And because they’re stretched thin, they’re forced to use their limited resources to put out one fire after another while bigger issues are left smoldering. It’s a vicious cycle that ultimately puts cashflow and profits at risk. Luckily for manufacturers who’ve found themselves stuck in this reactive mode, Bluco® Corp. (Naperville, IL) is coming to Booth B33034 to break the cycle.
Bluco is uniquely positioned to provide exactly what manufacturers need right now: untapped reserves of efficiency and productivity. “In a sense, we’ve cracked the code,” said Bluco Sales Director Brian Dodsworth. “We see a pattern of companies actively looking for the right levers to pull to get over a hurdle, but they’re completely overlooking workholding. Once you understand that’s a lever you can pull, and then you add in the problem-solving expertise and modular toolset that only Bluco can provide, that’s where we change the game.”
Bluco’s strategy enables three core capabilities for their customers: to move quickly; to adapt seamlessly; and to decide confidently. It’s a strategy that pays off for customers. Bluco’s booth will feature stories of customers who’ve shaved 50% off production time, reduced overall costs by 10%, achieved 7x greater accuracy, and finished parts a month faster.
Bluco’s process is unique in the industry. “People are used to choosing what they need from a catalog,” Dodsworth said. “But our process is different. When we assess a company’s needs, we take a step back from ‘I need a welding table,’ and identify what’s really holding them back.” Bluco creates solutions that give their customers a competitive edge. “By empowering them to manage change proactively,” Dodsworth said, “they can meet the demands of today’s market, and be prepared for whatever tomorrow brings.”
