In early 2011, the Racine plant was on track to become the largest revenue producing facility for this industrial manufacturer and new opportunities arose for LACOSTA to become a more strategic partner locally and across the country.
Total cost savings generated since inception of partnership: $375,000.
Pharmaceutical Manufacturer
LACOSTA began its partnership with this pharmaceutical company in Lafayette, Indiana providing janitorial services since 2004. After six years of showing sustained cost savings of 9% year over year in their janitorial expenses, LACOSTA expanded services into other areas of their operation. Over the past five years, LACOSTA has assumed responsibility for servicing another 14 key areas of service and operations with this customer.
“LACOSTA is fulfilling our requirements so well that we are actively working with them on a new initiative for them to help us with our laboratory operations. They learn what our goals are and not only exceed those but push us to do the things that we need to do to reach them as well. They give us alternatives that get the end in mind and are much more cost effective.” – Senior Procurement Manager
