You are going to Chicago to win work. We help you deliver it.
HOW TO HANDLE ORDER SURPLUS POST SHOW
You will leave McCormick Place with a badge scan list and a stack of real opportunities.
Then you go back to the same constraint you left. Skilled labor is tight. Your lines are committed. Overtime is already high.
Most manufacturers handle it by pushing quotes out, adding shifts, or slowing down the work they already promised. None of those protect the relationship you just built at the show.
There is another option. Move the labor-intensive work off your floor and keep your people on what only they can do.
What we take off your floor.
Our work integrates into your existing workflow. Documented processes, trained teams, quality controls that match your standards.
How We Support Your Operations
For more than 60 years, manufacturers across Minnesota and beyond have relied on MDI to support production during growth, peak demand, and labor disruption.
- Operational Reliability: Production keeps moving even when labor is tight or demand spikes.
- Flexible Capacity: Scale output without hiring, training, or carrying fixed labor costs.
- Quality and Compliance: ISO 9001:2015 certified processes, inspection systems, and documentation that protect your standards.
- Cost Control: Reduce overtime, rework, and vendor complexity with one integrated partner.
