Manny Bajaksouzian
General Manager
Aircraft Wheel & Brake Division
On the LeanBreakthru Consulting Team:
We have always been very satisfied with their approach,
their unwavering passion with respect to lean, the personal ownership they
assume when they take on a project and their bottom line focus. LeanBreakthru will
not allow the barriers to progress get in their way. They keep coming from
different directions until progress has been made. They have always been
aligned with the Corporate strategies and philosophies.

Dana Billings
Lean Coordinator
On LeanBreakthru 2P and 3P Events:
I think this is a huge (and I mean bigger than big) "Lean" step forward, and I truly believe we have an opportunity to realize more hard savings out of this one event... than what [we] might normally expect out of many, many of our early Lean efforts.
I don't know if I've ever seen an opportunity that I've been so excited about once I really thought about the potential impact of this. It is a huge change that could alter the direction of a lot of what we traditionally do — and spend — in our manufacturing and packaging worlds.

Compumotor Division, CTC
CTC Products Provide a Hardware and Software Solution. It is not difficult to find a provider of software products for the factory floor. Nor is it hard to find a source that can provide PC hardware solutions. But automation users today need a supplier that can provide both products and bundle them together as a single solution.
Not only can CTC products provide this bundled solution, but because the hardware and software are designed and tested under the same roof, our engineering team can optimize products to yield the best possible system performance.
A single source supplier for PC-based HMI/machine control hardware and software also benefits the machine builder by simplifying integration, support, and training efforts. CTC bundles PowerStation hardware and Interact HMI (Human-Machine Interface) software together, and also now integrates MachineLogicT PC-based control. Parker is truly a single source for PC-based HMI and Machine Control solutions.
