engineered system, AC&E has the resources required for fast, effective
and value-enhancing solutions to meet your needs.
As a national organization, AC&E can
leverage its footprint, vast corporate
and intellectual resources and extensive
economies of scale to offer exceptional
products and services at technology’s
leading edge, all at cost levels designed to
provide you, our customers, a high return
on your investments.
While our sheer size gives us strength, our
presence in local markets, industry-specific
expertise and unyielding commitment to
putting our customers first allows us to be
responsive, nimble and highly effective in
satisfying your needs.
With an extensive inventory of more than
100,000 SKUs and 135 brands, AC&E
offers immediate access to virtually any
component involving precision mechan-
ical; electrical and mechanical power
transmission; motion control; automation;
industrial controls; and power and energy
applications for both the original equip-
ment manufacturer (OEM) markets as well
as the maintenance, repair and operations
(MRO) field for most manufacturing and
processing industries.
procedures; production volume and
demand timing; shipping requirements;
and any in-field technical support needs.
Five specific areas where AC&E adds
value to OEM Control Panel develop-
ment include Value Engineering, Kaizen
events, Component Inventory Manage-
ment, Code/Standard Compliance and
Enhanced Manufacturing.
• ValueEngineering – This process
typically involves a detailed technical
review of the customer’s application
and bill of materials. Our engineers
work with our supply chain specialists
to specify the most price competitive
components, while ensuring compli-
ance with function and design objec-
tives. This process includes a focus on
manufacturing efficiencies and other
benefits derived from a Design for
Manufacturing approach.
• KaizenEvents – Frequently used
to support Value Engineering exercis-
es, AC&E often hosts Kaizen Events
involving a customer’s engineering,
purchasing, manufacturing and pro-
duct managers. AC&E facilitators work
directly with the customer to achieve
cost reduction goals but frequently find
that the synergistic cooperation also
leads to improvements to the overall
product design.
• ComponentInventory
Management– Engineered inventory
management and stocking agreements
allow AC&E to assure its OEM custom-
ers that the necessary components will
be available during standard and peak
production cycles.
• CodesandStandards
Compliance – The AC&E team can
work as a virtual extension of your
product engineering team, modifying
designs for compliance to the
applicable NEC/UL, IEC/CE and
other codes as required, and can
typically provide the construction file
necessary for final CE marking or
system installation.
• EnhancedManufacturing
Capabilities – AC&E manufacturing
capabilities are not limited to control
panels and cables. Depending upon the
product type and physical size, custom
electromechanical sub-assemblies and
fully assembled and tested complemen-
tary products are also available.
Custom Enclosures
With the resources to design and build
control panels for most applications,
regardless of mechanical, environmental
or regulatory constraints, AC&E is uniquely
suited to help our customers meet their
custom enclosure challenges.

Customer First We believe the key element of our success is our customers’ long-term
profitability, and the best way for us to ensure they achieve their goals is
through partnering with them and co-investing to make certain their
expectations are met or exceeded each and every time they work with us.
Whether our solutions are driving assem-
bly lines, reducing energy consumption,
raising drawbridges, training pilots,
producing life-saving medical devices,
protecting workers, packaging products,
building machines, assuring quality or
anything in between, AC&E solutions are
delivered with the singular focus of provid-
ing customer satisfaction.
Our customers include more than the
people who buy from us; we also
consider their customers, our suppliers,
our employees and our communities to be
AC&E customers. We know that they each
have specific needs today, but we expect
they will have even greater needs tomorrow.
To be prepared for the future we strive to
constantly get better. Whether we need to
improve our current approach, consider
alternative methods, incorporate emerging
technologies or any combination of the
above, we expect to get better every time.
We employ over 500 people—including
more than 75 degreed engineers, techni-
cians and specialists—operating out of 27
strategically located facilities throughout
North America. We stand today as the only
organization of its kind—a nationwide, fully
integrated provider of industrial solutions
with the resources necessary to fulfill the
needs of original equipment manufactur-
ers, industrial production plants and infra-
structure facilities. But we are not satisfied
with what we are; we are driven by what
we are going to be. Our customers want
to accomplish things; we plan to help
them do that.
