by | May 12, 2022 | Insights

Our people are far and away our greatest asset at Jones Metal. They are seasoned experts in their respective fields. They have an unparalleled commitment to excellence. And they’re always ready to tackle new challenges.

Today, we want to tell you about one team in particular: Engineering and Quality. Their skill and dedication is vital to making your custom metal manufacturing product the best it can possibly be. Here are the top 4 ways they can help add value to your project.

1. DEVELOPING OPTIMIZED, EFFICIENT PROCESSES

As Jones Metal in-house engineers, this team has a thorough understanding of every capability in our wheelhouse. This knowledge allows them to develop production plans that employ our shop, staff and resources to their greatest possible utility.

Optimized production processes benefit our clients in myriad ways. Some of the top benefits are:

  • Reduced costs – by developing a process that’s the ideal balance between quality and efficiency, we can advise when more costly solutions aren’t necessary.
  • Quicker production times – our robust understanding of all available capabilities means the quickest solution can be readily identified.
  • Design improvements – with cost and time savings in mind, we can offer expert advice about design adjustments throughout the project.

2. DOCUMENTATION AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS

Our engineers and quality experts are well-versed in documentation requirements for a wide variety of applications and industries. We can:

  • Create and modify design files
  • Identify compliance and testing requirements
  • Compile testing results
  • Obtain material and support specifications

While most industries require careful record keeping, government and military contracts are particularly exacting. Fortunately, our team is even well-versed in these most stringent requirements. Truly, whatever documentation support your project requires, our Engineering and Quality is ready to go.

3. FIXING PROBLEMS AND SOLVING CHALLENGES OTHERS CAN’T

Most manufacturers can do an adequate job taking a design file from a client and turning it into a product. But if anything fails or problems arise, you need true experts to get the problem fixed.

At Jones Metal, our team is regularly sought out to fix the problems other manufacturers left behind. From leaky welds to disruptive vibrations, we have the expertise that makes solution-finding possible. It’s a particularly gratifying day, when a client at their wits’ end over a nagging problem can finally feel at ease with a successful product in-hand.

4. TRANSFORMING NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES INTO POSITIVE ONES

For manufacturers without dedicated engineers and quality professionals, problems are often met with a shrug of uncertainty. They can’t say exactly what’s gone wrong. They can’t say how to fix it. In the end, the client is left to try and sort the problem on their own as best they can.

At Jones Metal, regardless of where disappointment originates from, we’re devoted to finding our clients effective remedies as quick as possible. Often, the solution lies in a clever tweak in the engineering. It just requires an expert’s trained eye to figure it out.

OUR CLIENTS CAN EXPECT COMPLETE SUPPORT

Thanks to our in-house Engineering and Quality team, our clients can trust they’re always being given the best possible process. The best possible solutions.

The best possible product.
