how RMG could potentially enhance our sales or how we could assist their customers with our products . As we connected exceptionally well , we joined forces . To that end , we needed to centralize our sales and services , cohesively enter the market , and develop the necessary infrastructure to support customers beyond manufacturing alone . Consequently , we decided to consolidate these operations under the leadership of RMG , with individuals from both Lawton and RMG contributing to the management . This allowed us to broaden our capabilities , as RMG ’ s Alabama foundry produces components with slightly smaller part sizes and higher production volumes compared to Lawton ’ s previous offerings . Likewise , RMG possesses a separate machine shop , elevating our technical expertise and presenting additional capabilities . Lastly , as it boasts refined processes that have been diligently executed for a long time , RMG has provided us with a stronger team and
increased support , both in terms of sales and problem-solving ,” Alex elaborates .
As we reach the end of our conversation , Alex highlights his ambitions for Lawton ’ s future . “ I envision the next era as a period of strategic growth investments with fewer acquisitions . Our goal is to continue increasing our output and revenue capacity . To achieve this , Lawton will shift its investments towards capital expenditures in robotics , software , and more modern mechanical equipment . In addition , we will intensify our research and development efforts to align with our sustainability targets and develop highquality solutions that remain affordable for our customers ,” he ends .
By committing to strategic partnerships and acquisitions , Lawton is empowered to relentlessly enhance the quality and innovation for which it is renowned . ■
