Plants Over 11 Years with Six Locations Consolidated

Challenge

Initially starting in 2009 with four facilities and 2,000 employees, over the next four years, this company experienced phenomenal growth through a series of acquisitions, doubling in size within a year.  A few years later, they added another 1,500 staff and six locations.

Synergetics was contracted to support many acquisitions, starting with due diligence efforts and how best to integrate.

To be successful, this company would require structure, accountability, measured results, and plant sustainability with solid training programs.
