Strategic Product Development Team Created at 600
A strategic product development team has been created within The 600 Group’s Machine Tools Division, to focus on product strategy and new product development for the Group’s global markets.
Jonathan Wright, Engineering Director of 600 UK, is heading the new team. He is supported by a strong team which includes Mike Berry, newly appointed as Managing Director of 600 Europe, Phil Cullen, 600 UK’s Marketing Manager, and Don Haselton, President of 600 North America.
Using customer feedback as its cornerstone, the team’s brief is to review and develop the Group’s machine tools product strategy to improve value further and quicken the return on investment for customers.
Mike Berry said: “Customers tell us that the payback period is a key factor influencing which machine tool they buy. We aim to strengthen and develop the Group’s product range strategically to fulfil our customers’ needs rapidly, whilst giving them the best possible deal and return on investment.”
Engineering Director, Jonathan Wright, explained further: “We are able to extend the models in our ranges by using modular design platforms, whilst having the flexibility to manufacture ‘built to order’ machines for customers with niche requirements.”
