Total Cost of Ownership
 |
| APS RF Input Coupler |
What is the real cost of a piece of equipment? This is the difficult
question that both buyer and end user must determine. Many simply
calculate the cost of equipment based solely on the original purchase
price. Comparing pricing and selecting the lowest initial cost supplier
works well for commodity or simple items. However, Meyer Tool believes
that buyers and users of complex equipment, often one-of-a-kind, need to be
more sophisticated in their judgement, and look beyond the initial cost in
order to determine "Total Cost of Ownership". By this, we mean the offer
that provides the best overall value to the customer.
One of our primary goals is to provide our customers with premier
manufacturing services and expert engineering support, and to do that in a
cost-effective manner. This involves using our judgement and experience
to work with customers to deliver what they really need, not just what is on
the prints or in the specifications. When designing or building complex
equipment, especially unique items for very specific purposes, it is crucial
to have a supplier that partners with you, someone who understands the
enormous cost of having a sophisticated piece of scientific equipment fail on
location. Meyer Tool engineering and production personnel are always on
the look out for the "gotchas" that can creep into complex designs. We
make every effort to find and prevent these issues before "cutting metal" (and
costing the customer). We strive to be flexible, working with customers
to resolve design inconsistencies and to develop solutions that benefit all
parties.
Stating that you build quality products is a cliché. Acceptable
quality should be the minimum requirement in the buyer's decision-making
process. In assessing "Total Cost of Ownership", the buyer must look for
exceptional quality and service. At Meyer Tool & Manufacturing, Inc.
we provide that exceptional quality and service. Using our experience in
cryogenic, vacuum and pressure technologies, we manufacture products that give
our customers peace of mind and the satisfaction throughout the life of the
equipment. Our reputation makes the right selection decision easy.
Anyone can "talk the talk", but we would be happy to supply you with a list of
satisfied customers and let them tell you in their own words that we
"walk the walk".

customers say about our high quality standards, engineering support,
problem-solving ability, and competitive pricing.
The higher the quality, the lower the
"total cost of ownership".
