Goyette Mechanical Grows Through Partnership

Goyette Mechanical specializes in industrial, municipal, government, military, residential and institutional work in the areas of heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical. In 2021, Goyette Mechanical will accumulate approximately $121 million in annual sales. Approximately 70% of the sales are service work, negotiated and/or design build projects. The company looks for opportunities in Michigan and select locations around the U.S.

Goyette has been partnering with GST Michigan Works! for almost 5 years, taking advantage of various programs the agency has to offer. As they continue to grow with the market demand, that partnership and support will grow, as well. The Going PRO Talent Fund is one program that Goyette has found to be a great asset. Goyette Mechanical was awarded the GPTF in 2022 and successfully trained new and existing employees with the award.

The industry is highly competitive, and they strive to stay ahead of competitors in the market. To do so, they provide Goyette employees with access to all the necessary training to make them the best and most valuable they can be. Retention is key! Keeping employees trained and paying competitive wages is extremely important to retaining all their quality employees and attracting new hires. This grant will alleviate some of the training expenses and allow Goyette Mechanical to provide more training opportunities to more employees. The expectation is that this grant will promote job growth, employee retention and help create new opportunities within the company. 

Training is a large expense for Goyette, but it is worth the investment when you have trained employees who are keeping the company competitive and the best in the industry! When awarded funding from this grant, Goyette was able to open additional training opportunities to more employees that will make them and the company more competitive. The Going Pro funds will directly impact the ability to promote employees, and bring in new employees to back-fill positions due to these promotions. It will also make the company more competitive when bidding for projects because they will have employees that are more trained and skilled than their competitors. 

Goyette Mechanical completed all training for the Going PRO Talent Fund in 2022 and a check was delivered for $91,445.
