“Engman-Taylor Company (ETCO) has been a long standing integrated supplier of Maintenance, Repair and Operational (MRO) supplies to Haldex Hydraulics Corporation since the early 1990’s.
“Engman-Taylor offers a holistic approach to the business services they support as an integrated supplier. This has evolved into a successful business relationship between Haldex Hydraulics and ETCO that has profited both companies as Haldex’s business has grown significantly over the last 3 years while driving down MRO costs.
“The cost reductions that Haldex has seen come from leveraging ETCO's purchasing power, utilizing their manufacturing expertise, as well as reduction in internal administrative costs through consolidated billings and related services provided by ETCO. Haldex has come to view ETCO as a value added partner.’
Terry McCormick, Manager, Manufacturing Engineering
Haldex Hydraulics Corp.
“Engman-Taylor has been the integrated supplier for tooling/MRO items to SPX Fluid Power for the past four years. The value that ETCO has brought to SPX include inventory reduction and control, new tool specification and testing, cost reduction projects, tool resharpening management, and suggestions for continuous improvement.
“The on-site staffing provided by ETCO has been very knowledgeable in cutting tools and the transition into SPX has gone smoothly. ETCO has been very helpful in taking an active role in special projects, such as integrating a tool crib from another SPX facility into the crib they manage, as a result of an SPX plant consolidation.
“As a progressive company, ETCO has shared with SPX ideas to integrate vending machines and implement satellite cribs in the facility. The partnership has proven beneficial to SPX, as ETCO supports in their area of responsiblity, the SPX initialtives that drive business success.”
