New machining business for low to medium volumes
24 Apr 2008
Matco, a new, Midlands-based parts machining business believes it has spotted at gap in the market for a machining company willing to work in partnership with customers to offer and end-to-end service on low to medium volume parts.
The founder of the company Matt Bishop says: “The purpose of Matco is to provide a turnkey solution for low and medium volume manufacturers, from sourcing the raw material, through machining, processing, assembly and test to guaranteed on-time delivery.
“A key element in our offer is to help customers avoid the costly interruptions to supply that they frequently experience when their machining subcontractors experience periods of high demand.
“Matco has a business model that we believe is unique in the industry. We are introducing high-end service levels and closely tailoring our schedules to the needs of individual customers so that they are confident they can rely on us to meet their particular requirements.
“Customers who wish to take on a priority contract with Matco can book a regular amount of machine time. This is something that has not been possible for low and medium volume manufacturers until now, and we believe that this, coupled with our regular, nationwide delivery service, provides benefits that will allow our customers to manage their own manufacturing operations more efficiently.”
Matco has been set up in Tyseley, Birmingham, with an initial investment in capital equipment of over £200,000, and a team of four highly experienced machine operators.
