In 2017, Groov-Pin conducted an internal survey to examine and refresh our company values. We identified six new core values that motivate our employees. Many of these values are interconnected and each department at Groov-Pin strives to uphold them every day.

The first of our company values is Teamwork. What does teamwork mean to our employees?

Scott Bunn, Operations

“Our focus is on customer delivery, on-time performance, and quality. To be able to ship quality products on time, everybody has to work together as a team. This is a technical business and some of the products we manufacture are very challenging. In the case of Precision Turned Components (PTC), parts go through many operations and everyone has to work hand-in-hand for the flow to be smooth and for the parts to pass quality testing. It takes everybody working together to get products out the door to the customer.”

 

Jean Lemieux, Production

“Teamwork is not about I or ME. WE are all responsible for the experience that our customers receive. The experience includes quality, delivery, process control, etc., and that comes from everyone knowing that their job adds value. Every single position from the president to each hand that touches our product is teamwork. At PTC, we do a good job even though some days can be frustrating. We all it know it is just the stress of being busy and we do not let that get in the way of our team performance!”

 

Sandee Davignon, Quality

“As a new member of the PTC/Groov-Pin team, it is apparent that the people value each other and work both individually and collectively to successfully meet our customers’ requirements. There is a sense of integrity with open and honest communication amongst departments, which shows that the culture is innovative and improvement-focused.”
