Last June, ReNEW Manufacturing Solutions expanded our operations with the acquisition of Interfuse Manufacturing, a leading manufacturer of machined components for diverse markets, including cranes and heavy equipment. We’re thrilled about this growth and have begun incorporating Interfuse into our network of shops. However, we know that acquisitions can trigger concerns among existing customers, who worry about cost-cutting measures that might compromise quality and service.
We want to assure you that this will never be the case when a shop joins ReNEW. We are creating a larger network of shops that enhances our custom metal fabrication capabilities to become a more comprehensive partner to our client base. Our goal is to support the existing shop and refine its processes to maximize its potential.
Find out how the significant advantages Interfuse brings to our organization will allow us to better serve you.
When we began exploring an acquisition of Interfuse, we first examined the company’s current management. The history and character of a shop’s leadership best predicts the success of such transitions. Effective integration requires unwavering commitment from management, as these leaders play a key role in inspiring their teams to embrace change.
After meeting with Interfuse, we knew immediately that we’d found a perfect fit for our company. We saw reputable, trustworthy management that had cultivated a strong business with excellent employees. As we prepared to help grow their shop and expand their customer base, we knew they had steady management and talented employees ready to engage in this process.
The addition of Interfuse significantly broadens the capabilities we offer our customers, simplifying their projects within our expanded network. Interfuse specializes in fabricating thicker materials such as high-strength steel and offers advanced welding for complex subassemblies. Their team of welders has specialized certifications previously unavailable in our shops.
Their facility also offers services that overlap with our existing capabilities, including large format CNC machining along with precision machining. This redundancy improves both lead times and reliability by ensuring sufficient capacity for our customers. For example, if one shop encounters a backlog, projects can seamlessly be transferred to other locations to prevent delays.
Our combined operations are already paying dividends. One Interfuse customer submitted an RFQ that the shop initially planned to no quote. However, upon realizing another one of our facilities could fulfill the request, they were able to fulfill the customer’s needs.
Our primary objective is to nurture and expand upon the success that Interfuse has already achieved as a metal manufacturer. By joining the ReNEW Manufacturing Solutions family, Interfuse has access to our wealth of expertise and talent. Our Chief Operating Officer, who has a proven track record in optimizing shop operations, will employ a data-driven strategy to enhance efficiency and output at Interfuse.
At ReNEW, we’re different from the typical buyers in the manufacturing industry. Our acquisitions are designed to benefit not only our client base but also the communities surrounding each shop. We are committed to expanding the workforce at Interfuse over time, creating more job opportunities for the local community.
