We have been very fortunate to have VMEC as a rich resource. We are grateful for the support and direction we received from Dave Lambertson throughout our ISO certification process. Dave has become a colleague vs. a consultant. We worked hard and laughed our way through stressful days. We look forward to working with Phil more in the future. He is a wealth of knowledge as well and appreciated.”
– Ingeborg Kuhlka , Quality and Technical Manager, Garware Fulflex USA Inc.
Our mid-managers are working with and designing value streams to help with our space and capacity expansion, and our Kata efforts are expanding pretty organically. We owe you great “thanks” for that. It’s remarkable seeing how it moves things forward.”
– Bill Church , President, Green Mountain Antibodies
As a not-for-profit Center with a custom approach and proven methodologies, we have helped over 895 of Vermont’s manufacturers meet and exceed their goals.
