LOC Performance in Lapeer has grown into one of the premier manufacturing companies for military and heavy construction applications. They have grown exponentially over the last year, adding more than 30% to their full-time staff. They applied for the Going Pro Talent Fund FY22 to invest in their growing workforce to sustain growth and reduce performance weaknesses. LOC Performance trained 6 current and 4 new employees and were reimbursed $9,535 for their award.

All the employees who attended the training were either new to the company, new in their role or even new to manufacturing. The training allowed them the opportunity to increase skill levels and oftentimes Allyson said, “…bring that knowledge back home to teach their peers!”
After the completion of training they stated it was clear that a positive impact was made! New machinists were interpreting blueprints and quality checking their own parts; newly promoted supervisors were more effectively managing their teams and programmers were implementing new processes on the production floor. Allyson commented, “Our team and our company overall saw improved employee performance, job satisfaction, and improved quality after attending the trainings.”
