For almost 30 years, IMC has been helping Central Pennsylvania manufacturers become more innovative, productive and profitable. We have been able to do this, in part, due to support from the U.S. Department of Commerce, NIST Manufacturing Extension Partnership program.
A recent study by the W.E. Upjohn Institute found that the MEP Program generates a substantial economic and financial return of nearly 9:1. Yes, a federal investment that works!

IMC is pleased to recognize the following companies with graduates from our first Lean Champions Level Two class.
Many of our Level One participants wanted to go further in their Lean journey so we developed the Lean Champions program. Level Two is a powerful second step for individuals looking to fortify and lead their organization’s Lean efforts. Continuing the theme of a team-based approach to organizational opportunities, participants further develop their skill sets to lead sustainable change within their organization. The distinct “learn and do” approach is proven to develop Lean leaders that can manage, measure and lead their organization’s Lean transformation.
