Mid-Continent Engineering's (MCE) diversified industry focus concentrates effort in three major sectors:
35 percent commercial aircraft, 40 percent defense, and 25 percent high-tech medical.
All three of these industry disciplines require the highest levels of quality and service. Today MCE customers include Boeing, Vought (Northrop), and Lockheed Martin, as well as GE Medical Systems and 3M Medical Systems.
Entrepreneurship has been a guiding theme since MCE's modest beginning in 1949.
Since then, MCE has grown steadily today employing 150 willing workers and occupying a 138,000 square-foot facility. The business has developed into an operation of multiple capabilities: three-, four-, and five-axis computer numeric control milling (CNC), sheet-metal fabrication, heat-treating, welding and spot welding, plating and painting, complex assembly, and design for manufacture.
Under management leadership and broadening of employee training and participation, MCE implemented the principles of W. Edward Deming, including Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Total Quality Management (TQM).
In 1998 the company introduced a Lean Manufacturing Program to achieve further cost control and continued operational improvements. In addition, MCE is certified to the ISO-9002 quality standard internationally accepted registration process. A Six Sigma recent initiative will contribute and further intensify efforts directed toward customer satisfaction.
