Plant Tour: 315 Company: ABEC Location: Springfield, MO You might not know it, but Springfield, Missouri, is the "stainless steel capital of the U.S.," home to more than 30 manufacturers in the industry, many of which specialize in stainless steel tanks. Yesterday, we had the opportunity to tour one of these many companies: ABEC. ABEC is a leading manufacturer of stainless steel, single-use, and hybrid process solutions for the biopharmaceutical industry. Many life-saving and daily-use medications are researched, developed and produced in their vessels. It’s always impressive to tour a company that’s deeply committed to safety, quality, automation, continuous improvement, or culture. But it’s even more impressive when they’re focused on all of these, and excelling in each one. Thank you to Matt Ryan, Rochelle Yoap, MSHRM, Vanessa Hansen and the entire ABEC team for the tour yesterday. Great to have MAM Board Director Mark McNay from SMC Packaging Group join us as well. #MAMstrong #MissouriManufacturing #PlantTour #CultureOfConnection Michael Eaton Jeff Cumley, MA Jeff Wright Matheson Eaton Andrew LeGrand, MBA Randy Colwell Lacey Coleman, SHRM-CP Jessica Presley Josh Shelton Joe Reynolds Mary Ling, MBA Hilary Nicholson Dustin Watson Kate Sanders
