Dehnco Recent Added Value Investments

Work Better

We’ve put together a quick recap of some business updates and investments that we wanted to share with you.

It’s been a busy few years here at Dehnco. Our business is growing – our E-Commerce and Ship from Store Distribution programs are growing and expanding alongside our legacy markets. With more and more requests for Retail Distribution, Omni-Channel Shipping, and Ship-From-Store Solutions, we have expanded our capabilities to address the pack and ship challenges that many of our clients are facing today. 

To accommodate and sustain the growth we’ve seen over the years, we’ve expanded our offerings and improved upon our capabilities in a number of areas across our business. We’ve hired additional staff and updated our facilities, software, and manufacturing equipment to meet our clients’ needs. 

We’ve put together a quick recap of some business updates and investments that we wanted to share with you, and we look forward to all that’s to come. 

Design & Engineering

Our Engineering and Design Team is made up of equipment experts. Our team works with our standard, in-stock components, but if that isn’t quite what our clients need, our team can also design, modify, and customize workstation and/or necessary workstation components to our clients’ specifications, in a timely and cost effective manner. 

Our Engineering and Design Team is available to assist every step of the way. Our team will conduct an on-site evaluation to assist with engineering, design and proto-typing projects. The on-site visits provide exceptional value, and allow our team to get a working understanding of current product flow, process, and integration requirements for each workstation.  An understanding of the space and flow assists in the development, improvement, and continued effort to provide efficient, productive, durable, and cost-effective solutions.

At Dehnco, we are always challenging ourselves to grow, innovate, and learn as much as we can in order to stay up-to-date on the latest trends and technologies. We’ve bolstered our offerings and made improvements in delivery, customer service, and consultations. Over the last few years, we’ve created new roles to support our growing business and we’ve invested in additional resources to meet the demands of our customers.

Staffing

Our staff gets the job done. We’ve added some new positions to meet our output goals and sustain our growth. 

  • Hired 3 additional Product Development Engineers
  • Hired additional Shipping Personnel
  • Hired additional Service Coordinator, Customer Service, and Logistics personnel
  • Hired additional Production Leads to allow for adding an Evening and Night Shift to provide 24 hour production, as required
  • Added 6 additional Engineering staff
  • Added additional Customer Service Coordinators

Adding team members has allowed us to maintain our high standard of customer service when working with our partners. At Dehnco, we prioritize client satisfaction, and we pride ourselves on our quick response times, cost-effective customization capabilities, and our accessibility to our clients and partners. 

Facilities

As the workplace becomes increasingly complex and faster-paced, we want to make sure our staff has the space and resources they need to succeed. 

  • Re-organized primary facility to accommodate 100% manufacturing
  • Purchased 85K sq./ft facility to expand our inventory and distribution capabilities
  • New division dedicated to mobile pushcart business

The addition of our new Assembly and Distribution Facility has enabled us to take on more business and lower our lead times for standard and custom products. The additional space has allowed us to increase our manufacturing capabilities, provided dedicated space for assembly and packing, and enables us to hold a higher volume of standard component inventory.

Speed has never been more important than in the digital age

Equipment

In order to deliver up-to-date solutions for our clients, we invested in the most up-to-date manufacturing equipment. 

  • Invested in new machinery to increase production capabilities
    • Amada Laser Cutter (2)
      • Allows for 24 hour production of sub assembly parts
    • Amada Turret Punch Press
      • Provides greater flexibility to muli-task production requirements
    • Amada Break Press
    • Additional welding booths
      • Provides for additional production capacity
  • Invested in a new powder coating paint line to streamline and increase our production capabilities
    • Adding to our existing paint line, we are able to paint multiple items, multiple colors 24/7
  • Invested in welding equipment to provide the ability to work with aluminum and stainless steel, along with other metals
    • Expands our ability to design cost effective functional solutions with a variety of materials
  • Investing in new production line for benchtops, which is currently outsourced
  • Invested in 3D printer for prototyping

Inventory

Additional dedicated inventory space has helped us increase productivity and reduce order lead-time. 

  • Our new distribution facility stores outsourced components along with an increased inventory of standard workstation and workstation components to reduce lead times.
  • Greater inventory of standard components gives us the ability to modify and customize components cost effectively and in a timely manner.

Software

Storing additional inventory requires investing in more advanced management and reporting tools. 

  • (2017) Invested in new ERP system to increase efficiencies, improved inventory management and more flexible reporting capabilities
  • Launched new resources for dealers on our website

On-Going Initiatives

As our business continues to grow, so will we. We have a couple on-going initiatives in the pipeline. 

  • Build and establish network to distribute and export workstations and carts worldwide
  • Discuss opportunities to expand production and establish facilities in Europe and India
  • Create an engineering team to review and revise existing Amazon Stations and Carts to lower cost while maintaining functionality and efficiency. The constant re-evaluation of our product line and production process allow us to minimize need for price increases, lowers lead times, and improves the durability, flexibility, and functionality of our productions.
  • Dehnco will continue to make on-site visits, as required, to assist with engineering, design and proto-typing projects. These visits are mutually beneficial, as they assist in our continued effort to provide efficient, productive, durable, and cost-effective solutions.
