Mundelein Quoting Process Improvement

MFCS has been steadily gaining new business over the years, naturally causing a significant increase in quote requests to process. As a company, we have realized that the quotation process we currently have in play today will not keep up with our customers’ needs, which is at the top of our priority list. Because of a successful kaizen event, Mundelein now has a solid plan to reduce quote turnaround times by the end of the calendar year to better serve our customers' needs.

The Rotational Program Takes on the Carolinas

The MacLean-Fogg Manufacturing Management Program (MMP) is a two-year rotational program that allows high potential recent college graduates to make a measurable impact early in their professional careers. Rotational Engineers work side-by-side with current MacLean-Fogg engineers on projects and assignments that will create a challenging and rewarding experience. Currently, recent graduates are working at PWK, MacLean Curtis-Cornelius, Metform, Mundelein, Royal Oak, EPC and Maynard.

Their 2016 certification goal is 100%.
