Why don’t all metalform manufacturers’ staff internal program managers? The benefits far outweigh any other option when it comes to customer focused commitment. Program Managers are available to answer your questions, update you on projects and tasks as well as provide technical feedback on design and production. Does your metal stamper or fabricator provide you with one point of contact for each and every project? Experience- Working with a program manager should improve your overall metalform manufacturing experience. Whether you’re a new customer or have been working with the same company for many years, having one main point of contact is beneficial for many reasons including: · Lowers lead times and overall costs · Sense of familiarity with your parts · Improves manufacturability overtime The ability to work with one program manager for your project from the design and prototype stage through production and delivery means lower lead times and lower costs. Program Managers work to facilitate your projects in each department making your turn around times quicker and thus lowering overall cost. Once you’ve established a relationship with your Program Manager, re-orders, product modifications or entirely new projects become simple. Your business becomes familiar over time and Program Managers can easily adapt changes to your current metal stamped and/or fabricated parts.Experienced Program Managers have technical backgrounds and can help improve the manufacturing process to improve your part. Overtime, your metal stampings or fabrications should improve as Engineering, Quality Control, and Program Management work together to turn your design into a strong end-product.
