Why the Difference Matters

In the manufacturing industry, the terms “supplier” and “strategic partner” are often used interchangeably, but there’s a significant difference between the two. As companies navigate the complexities of supply chains, it’s important to understand what sets a strategic partner apart – and why this distinction matters when selecting your manufacturing partners.

At Automated Wire Products, our goal is to be more than just a supplier. We strive to become a trusted strategic partner for our customers. But what does that mean in practice? It’s about building relationships that extend beyond transactions, focusing on long-term value through collaboration, innovation, and reliability. Here’s what it looks like when a partner goes beyond just supplying parts and starts delivering real value to your business.

Collaboration and Engineering Support – Your Success Is Our Priority

As a strategic partner, we don’t just take orders; we’re involved from the start. Working alongside your team during the design stage, we offer engineering support and detailed reviews that ensure every ground compression spring meets your specs. By identifying potential improvements early, we help you get better performance and cost savings in the long run.

This level of collaboration is especially critical in the hydraulic industry, where even the smallest part plays a crucial role in system performance. We’re here to ensure your springs meet the toughest requirements, so you don’t have to worry about anything other than hitting your production goals.

Commitment to Long-Term Trust – We’ve Got Your Back

Trust isn’t given; it’s earned. And at AWP, we’re all about proving that trust over time. Sure, a spring may not be the biggest ticket item in your assembly, but it’s essential. We deliver defect-free springs, on time, every time, so you can stay focused on what matters: launching new products, meeting deadlines, and moving your business forward.

You deserve a partner you can rely on, one that lets you operate without a hitch. We’ve got the track record to back it up, with 100% on-time delivery and a reputation for quality that’s second to none. Our commitment means one less thing for you to worry about.

Operational Excellence and Rapid Prototyping – Because Speed Matters

We’ve built our processes for precision, speed, and reliability. With investments in CNC coiling, robotic trimming, and other advanced automation, AWP doesn’t just deliver springs; we deliver an edge. Rapid prototyping is a part of that edge, with most prototypes in your hands in 10 days or less. Got an urgent need? We can even expedite production and ship prototypes the same day.

Partnering with AWP means you get prototypes that match production quality, ensuring a seamless transition to full-scale manufacturing. When you’re ready to move fast, we’re right there with you.

Consistent, Globally Competitive Pricing – Quality Doesn’t Have to Break the Bank

At AWP, high-quality doesn’t mean high cost. We know how important competitive pricing is to our customers, and we deliver that by focusing exclusively on ground compression springs. This specialization allows us to optimize every part of our process, keeping prices down without sacrificing quality.

If you want top-tier springs without the inflated costs, AWP brings a level of cost-effectiveness that few can match. You get world-class quality without the world-class price tag, making your investment go further.
