Whatsthedifferencebetween a supplier and a partner?
Do the busi nesses you depend on for i ndustri al
componentsexceed your expectations?Do they listen?Do
they innovate on your behalf?Do they deliver more than
just the component?Do they deliver true value and support?
Do theycommit to your businessasif it weretheir own?
O ne thi ng weve learned from our fi rst 50 years of
busi ness i s that, i n our fi eld of i ndustri al component
manufacturi ng, the di fference between bei ng just another
suppli er and bei ng a true partner i s measured by ones
abi li ty to cover the bases to deli ver not just the product
but complete sati sfacti on wi th the process.
And once thi s level of sati sfacti on i s achi eved, you dont
rest on your laurels. You refi ne, you i mprove, you i nnovate.
Complacency has no place i n a partnershi p. You work to
deli ver more value, because there wi ll always be some
other company that clai ms hi gher quali ty or a lower pri ce.
You work to turn a phi losophy of partnershi p i nto a
valuable reali ty for your customer.
At K nappco, our partneri ng phi losophy means worki ng
closely wi th every customer to provi de better support and
i mprove manufacturi ng capabi li ty. I t also means i nvesti ng
heavi ly i n our own dedi cated resources. I n 2000 alone,
we commi tted over $3.5 mi lli on i n expansi ons to our
headquarters and i mprovements to our manufacturi ng
faci li ti es. We i nsti tuted the O racle ERP system to better
manage our customer and vendor transacti ons. We
i ni ti ated and enhanced employee job-trai ni ng programs.
We achi eved I SO 9001 certi fi cati on. And more. All to

Presi dent,
K nappco Corporati on
Cust omer Servi ce IS our busi ness.
Our challenge is to ensure that the full experience of doing business with Knappco
exceeds a customers expectations. Our manufacturing and engineering
capabilities are top-notch, but if we dont process an order properly, fail to deliver
on time, misquote a product, mishandle a phone call, well, then all the quality
and value is lost. Great customer service means we focus on
both the big picture and the details.
We specify only Knappco manholes because t hey re t he best !
If theres something wrong with a manhole, our customer thinks theres
something wrong with the tank we cant afford that. Knappcos focus on
building the best manhole, one that exactly meets our specifications and
performance criteria, is matched by their customer support. Their Quality
Control has raised our standards and that makes us,
and our customers, very happy.
