Now that they have been approved for TAAF funding, this Michigan tool and die maker will start by improving efficiencies and upgrading their engineering software. After working with GLTAAC to develop their TAAF Adjustment Plan, the manufacturer saw its road to recovery beginning with cost controls and better engineering capabilities to make them more competitive in the near term. They will then move to promote their expertise with a market research project and a renewed website. The firm intends to spend their $75,000 in TAAF matching funds within 12 months.
