Scott also emphasized that they want to learn about these new products and technology and how they can bring them to their customers. “We try to understand…the market, and what our customers are asking in order to meet their needs, and then therefore, we either try to bring this technology from our existing partners or if there is something that we’re missing in the industry and we do not have it in our product portfolio, then we will go out and look for a manufacturer that has that product to fit a certain market need.” It’s all part of what makes Minuteman Empire Automation Systems an industry leader.
