Planning Your Facility’s Growth

As the manufacturing industry grows, many companies might consider growing their business through capital investments. CMTC (California Manufacturing Technology Consulting) recommends companies plan their expansion carefully and execute it correctly the first time. When it comes to these large investments, Lee Contracting understands their complexity and specializes in the entire value-engineering process from quoting the project all the way through start up.  When planning your investments, you should pay extra attention to equipment upgrades and warehouse space, as ThomasNet says these are two of the most important aspects to your expansion.

Equipment

New machinery can increase production capacity for your company which will create more opportunities. Your equipment is the

lifeblood of your company and deciding to invest in new equipment comes with a lot of upfront costs and decisions. Lee Contracting can help you every step of the way with the planning of this investment. Using our in-house manpower and equipment, we take care of every aspect of the installation: foundations, transportation, rigging, utility hook ups, and start up. Our unique approach eliminates the need to coordinate multiple contractors and delays caused by one contractor waiting for another to finish a portion of the project.

If investing in new equipment isn’t in your scope, you may be able to modify or update your equipment to work more efficiently. Lee Contracting’s maintenance and repair department is experienced to make sure your equipment is running better than before. We recently refurbished a 30-year old press for Delaco Steel Corporation and today it is running twice as fast.

Warehousing

When you expand your production area of your facility, this changes your usable on-site warehousing space. If you find that you cannot grow your facility’s footprint at its current location, you might consider off-site warehouse space. Offsite warehousing can lower the additional costs of maintenance and overhead. Lee Contracting has over 300,000 square feet of warehousing space available to keep your assets safe. We offer short-term and long-term storage for your heavy or light industrial items.

Whether you are looking to invest in new equipment, refurbish old equipment or looking for a place to store your assets, Lee Contracting has what you need to grow your business. Call us today for a free quote: 888-833-8776 or request your free quote here.
