Press Release Summary: Thomas R. Cutler Champions the ETO Manufacturer
Press Release Body: Ranked as the nation's leading manufacturing journalist and a contributing editor for more than 300 publications annually, TR Cutler, Inc. President & CEO Thomas R. Cutler, (www.trcutlerinc.com) has been writing extensively about ETO (engineer-to-order) manufacturing for almost ten years. According to Cutler, "The term engineer-to-order is a style of manufacturing rather than a specific industry segment. Other terms used to describe this manufacturing process are "project-based" or "custom" manufacturers. ETO companies typically have distinct characteristics about the way they conduct business that are quite different from discrete or repetitive manufacturers." According to Cutler, "ETO companies build unique products designed to customer specifications. Each product requires unique item numbers, bills of material, and routings. Estimates and quotations are required to win business. Products are complex with long lead times, typically months and even years. Unlike products made by repetitive manufacturers, the customer is heavily involved throughout the entire design and manufacturing process. Engineering staff is regularly asked to make changes. Material is purchased for a specific project, not for inventory. All actual costs are allocated to a project and tracked against the original estimate."
