Modelcraft • August 9, 2024

Case Study:

In the competitive world of manufacturing, finding a partner that consistently delivers on quality, reliability, and cost-effectiveness is crucial. For Quality Engineering, a leading player in their field, the search for such a partner ended over a decade ago when they began their relationship with Modelcraft Co. Tom Addy, the General Manager at Quality Engineering, shares his experience of working with Modelcraft Co. and how this partnership has grown over the years.

Challenges Before Modelcraft

Before partnering with Modelcraft Co., Quality Engineering relied on another manufacturing company based in Massachusetts. However, they faced significant challenges, particularly with delivery dates. "The previous company wasn’t coming through very well with their delivery dates," Tom recalls. This inconsistency in service prompted Quality Engineering to seek out a more reliable partner.

Why Quality Engineering Chose Modelcraft

Modelcraft Co. came highly recommended to Quality Engineering through word of mouth—a testament to our reputation in the industry. According to Tom, the decision to switch was influenced by both our competitive pricing and our commitment to on-time delivery. "Their price was right on the money, and delivery dates have since improved, especially under the new management and systems."

Building Trust Through Quality Work

Trust is earned through consistent performance, and that’s exactly how Modelcraft Co. solidified its relationship with Quality Engineering. Tom recalls how the partnership began with a simple job: "We gave them a straightforward project, and the results were impressive. That initial success built the foundation for a relationship that has continued to grow."

What Quality Engineering Values Most About Modelcraft Co.

One of the key aspects that Tom values in the partnership is the ease of communication and responsiveness. "Working with Debbie has been fantastic. She’s very easy to work with and always provides quick response times." At Modelcraft Co., we understand that clear, timely communication is critical in ensuring a smooth process from start to finish.

Reliable Service with a Personal Touch

Modelcraft Co. not only prides itself on the quality of its products but also on the reliability of its service. Tom describes Modelcraft Co. as "very reliable, with good quality, good prices, and a good turnaround." An added benefit of our partnership is our local delivery service, ensuring that Quality Engineering receives their orders on time, every time.

A Decade of Success

Over the past decade, Quality Engineering has found in Modelcraft Co. a partner that not only meets but often exceeds their manufacturing needs. From competitive pricing to reliable delivery and exceptional quality, this partnership has been a cornerstone of Quality Engineering’s success.
