​Total Cost of Ownership

PictureTotal Cost of Ownership
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".
