Welcome to
Precision Matters Magazine!
Hello and welcome to the first edition of Precision Matters, a
Boston Centerless magazine. Two thousand eighteen marks our
60-year anniversary, and what better way to take a look back as
well as share some exciting, growing developments within our
organization than to put it in print.
We will share some of our history and the threads that have
held true since day one. We will highlight ways that we’ve evolved
over the years in continual pursuit of helping our customers
achieve hassle-free operational excellence. In addition to matters
pertaining to Boston Centerless, you will also find articles from
national thought leaders to assist you in your quest for success.
In this inaugural issue, three members of our leadership team
will share their perspectives on issues that we hope you will
find interesting and relevant to your manufacturing business.
Topics include a growing problem that has garnered a great
deal of attention on a national scale: the chronic shortage of
skilled workers. In the world of precision machining, it turns out
that there are solutions that can mitigate this problem through
the improvement of the productivity of the skilled workers you
already have.
As we celebrate our 60th year in business, we are excited to
share with you stories of the people, processes, and values that
have contributed to our success as a business. We would also like
to take this opportunity to thank our customers and suppliers
for your continued support over the years. We hope you find
the content of this publication relevant, interesting, and useful.
Thank you for your interest in Boston Centerless and American
manufacturing. I hope you enjoy reading
