Staber Industries, Inc.
Manufactures energy-efficient washing machines and drying cabinets
- “With Global Shop Solutions, we discovered our costs were higher than we thought. It was a real eye-opener to see our true costs for the first time.”
- “As long as we correctly input our hourly labor rates, overhead and equipment costs, the system gives us a very accurate accounting of our true costs.”
- “Knowing our true costs tells us how much we can come down on price in regards to competitors, and how low we can go before saying no.”


Alexandria Pro-Fab Co., Inc.
Machine shop specializing in CNC turning, 5-axis milling and prototypes
- “Having operators electronically log on and off all jobs allows for more precise capture of direct and indirect labor time.”
- “We used to assume we made good margins based on our costing. In reality, we often had jobs going out the door for less than they cost to make.”
- “With Global Shop Solutions, we can now see when our pricing and margins are off and adjust them as needed.”
