Annual off-site strategic planning meeting highlights success and plans for future growth

This was an amazing year for S&H Machine and much of our success is the direct result of our annual off-site strategic planning meeting. This year, the entire S&H management team met for two days at a retreat in Hermosa Beach, California to highlight our successes, identify where we can improve and make plans for the year ahead.

Among our goals for 2011 was a year-over-year sales growth of 15%. Thanks to our fantastic sales and production staff we were able to achieve actual sales growth of 40%! Most importantly, this growth was achieved while maintaining an on-time delivery rate of 99.27% and quality performance of 99.94%.

Our team also spent time discussing ideas for efficiency and quality improvements, capital expenditures and goals for the company, departments and individual team members. Everyone came back from the meeting excited and ready for the year ahead. We’re looking forward to the journey and hope you will join us in a productive and profitable new year.
