One quote from Danny Cooper says it all: “The value of having a Fastenal team on site is priceless really. We just don’t have the resources that it takes to manage something as big as MRO, and that’s what Fastenal does – they’re the experts at doing things that we’re not capable of doing.” Danny's quote comes from a a case study with Curtiss-Wright Corporation. Danny is the senior director of operations there and he took us through a whirlwind implementation. (They went live in TWO WEEKS.) Now, to find out why he said, "I knew early on that they were going to be the supplier I would pick," you'll just have to read the full case study here: https://lnkd.in/duHvvZGY
