| Business Partnerships Designed for Building Succes | | Many times you have read in this
publication the success of various
companies who inspire us with their
vision as entrepreneurs. They establish
their firms and carve out their corporate
success based on good products,
effective manufacturing, and sound
decision making. While it is very true
that the firm Goldbeck GmbH, based in | | | Once a Partner, Always a Partner | | To many people, the city of Dubai, in the
United Arab Emirates is internationally
known for fantastic building and growth. It
has fast become a center for architectural
achievement, construction innovation, and
rapid infrastructure development. Dubai is
the home to the Burj Dubai, competing for
the world's tallest structure; the Burj Al
Arab, a seven star hotel located in the Gulf, |
| Rising to New Heights in Latin America | | To be considered a pioneer in any venture is a great testimony to determination,
attitude, and an inexhaustible work ethic. The employees and management of
Manufacturas Metalicas Ajax set the pace and | | | Building Powerful Fabrication Team | | George Steel Fabricating Inc. is located in Lebanon,
Ohio, not too far from Columbus—home of the Ohio
State Buckeyes (alma mater of CEO John George).
As every collegiate football fan knows, Ohio State
is synonymous with |
| Yankee Pride and Craftsmanship… | | The average visitor to Vermont usually has visions of rushing rivers, excellent ski
conditions, treks on the Appalachian Trail and beautiful mountain ranges. They
anticipate antique stores with shelves of maple syrup and locals gathered around
a fireplace in winter or sitting on the front porch in summer. | | | A People Center–Not a Profit Center | | You see the word “technology”
everywhere. Today’s consumer is bombarded
with the word, which always
conjures up thoughts of some finite
electronic design genius that will make
your life easier and more enjoyable.
One steel fabrication firm, located in
the American Heartland, has a different
twist on technology. |
| Serving Your Industry
Pays Dividends | | The descriptive name for the steel supply
industry may vary from country to country—
some call it “steel stock holders” or “steel
stocking center” or “steel service center”—but
the intent is the same. Any firm that engages
in the distribution of structural steel must be
dedicated to their customers, and provide first
class services with timely deliveries. One of
the premier firms in today’s global market is
F. Hackländer GmbH, Kassel, Germany. | | | Robinson Construction | | We take a follow-up look
at Robinson Construction
in Derby, UK. Four
years ago Robinson
implemented a new fast
track “Speed Line” for
structural fabrication,
realizing the full potential
of the system within
months, and processing
jobs in record time. |

- Triples steel fabrication

All in 5 years! | | | Maintaining Consistent Contact Builds Success | | At Builders Steel in Tulsa, OK, that conversation
about losing contact with customers would probably
never take place. Why? Because Builders Steel
believes consistent contact with customers,
vendors, suppliers and business partners insures that
expectations are met on every project. |
| …First Beam Done and Twenty Years To Go….. | | The football season was winding down in late January, when Eckhard Schultz, General Manager of Stewart-Amos Steel Co, Harrisburg, PA, asked Steve Farrow, Peddinghaus’ N.E. Regional Manager to stop by. Stewart-Amos Steel was a pioneer in early automation having installed a Peddinghaus TDK-1000-3 Drill line on April 16, 1987. Visits by the “Peddinghaus Man” were not uncommon, but today would be more than just a chat about the upcoming Super Bowl and how big was their backlog. | | | Going to the Next Level | | It doesn’t matter what business you are in—or the industry you participate—or even the profession that you involve yourself. There comes a time when you have to make a sound business decision. Do you take the risk and enlarge the business? Do you set your corporate goals higher? Do you take on the added overhead costs to hopefully reap a bigger reward? |
| CODEME: Building SUCCESS from Higher EDUCATION | | How many times have you heard college students
admit, “I’m not sure what my future is after college”,
or “I hope I obtain a job in the field of my choice”.
College students are always filled with apprehension
when they consider the future. What is out there for
me? Is this a step in the right direction for my
career? Some surveys even reveal that less than
30% of college graduates obtain a position in the
field of their study.
Let me tell you a story about four college engineering students. Four students who worked their way
through a challenging college curriculum to receive their diplomas. Four students who became fast
friends in time spent together studying and sharing college life. | | | CIANBRO: Project Performance the Safe Way | | In today’s corporate society, many firms quickly
develop identification labels. These labels are
based on their reputation or performance in a
specific industry or market segment. Just like your
reputation, your corporate identity tends to stick
with you. Microsoft is Windows Software;
Southwest Airlines is reliable no/frills flying;
Enron—well, we all know Enron’s label.
Cianbro Corporation, Pittsfield, ME is
proud to be known as an employee owned firm
dedicated to Safety… |
| Schuff Steel - Raising Cardinal Stadium | | Workers are on a roll aligning the center rails of the
twin roof panels that cover the $450-million Arizona
Cardinals Stadium in Phoenix. The panels of the 5,400-ton
assembly, jacked in one piece earlier this year, moved
apart for the first time recently in an operation that
went off without a hitch. | | | PKM -Roll up your sleeves for success | | The latest addition was the ABCM 1250/3-CNC
Burning System—designed for automated
burning and coping of all structural sections.
The purchase justification for this machine was
pretty basic. A potential large truss project called

intricate flange/web burning. |
