Corporate Bio

We were founded in 2005 by a group of people who have been in the Material Handling Industry since the mid 1970's.   Our collective background is from the electrical, mechanical, software engineering, project management, field installation, spare parts and customer service areas.  Two of the founders, Mr. Gregg Wilkinson and Mr. George Cook have been partners since 1986.

We pride ourselves in ensuring that each system is maximized to the needs of the end user.  We realize that when doing these types of systems there are issues that inevitably arise which fall outside the scope of work of the total system package.  We DO NOT insist the customer obtain additional funding for these types of challenges.  These issues are generally very easy to incorporate into the agreed workload.  We are confident the final system will meets the needs of the customer, including challenges that occur after the contract is awarded.

We will be more than happy to refer you to our past customers for their feedback.
