25 YEARS OF PROVEN PARTNERSHIP
WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“When a logic conflict in our main sorting line caused an unscheduled three-hour shutdown, we couldn’t wait for a general contractor to ‘study’ the problem. We called R&E, and they had a W-2 Controls Engineer on-site who diagnosed the PLC bottleneck and had us back in production within ninety minutes. Having a partner who understands the high-stakes cost of a down-minute is invaluable.”
Marcus V.
Senior Maintenance Manager, Tier 1 Automotive Supplier
“The biggest risk in field services is the ‘contractor carousel.’ With R&E, that risk is gone. Knowing that their CWIs and Manufacturing Engineers are full-time R&E employees means we get a consistent level of professionalism and safety compliance every time. They understand our documentation standards and our culture of excellence, which simplifies my vendor management immensely.”
David K.
Purchasing Manager, North American Distribution & Logistics
“During our recent EV platform launch, our internal engineering team was stretched thin. R&E Automated provided four Robot Programmers who integrated so seamlessly into our workflow that it felt like they’d been with us for years. They didn’t just write code; they optimized our cycle times and de-risked our most aggressive production milestones. They are our first call for technical bandwidth.”
