Northeast Indiana's Success Stories: UT Electronic Controls

Pride. Quality. Teamwork. Huntington-based manufacturer UT Electronic Controls provides an example for these three qualities. Utilizing teamwork to produce high-quality microprocessor-based controls has initiated a strong sense of pride throughout the facility in all of the employees. Further supporting the effectiveness of UTEC's perspective on doing business, IndustryWeek has recognized the manufacturer as one of North America's Top 10 Best Plants in 2008.

Top 10 Best Plants must show a dedication to and competence in increasing competitiveness, enhancing customer satisfaction and creating stimulating and rewarding work environments. UTEC accomplishes all three tasks and has produced what Esther Johnson-vice president and general manager of UTEC's parent company, Carrier Electronics-describes as a "huge locomotive."

A locomotive appears to be a sufficient analogy, as UTEC has showcased the ingenuity, efficiency and unwavering commitment to continuous improvement that has earned the northeast Indiana manufacture its well-deserved national recognition.

Northeast Indiana is where success has found a home. Ingenious and high-quality businesses find everything they need to achieve their goals: quality of place, nurturing business environment and a workforce skilled at achieving results.
