The SC Manufacturing Council (SCMC) is strictly focused on manufacturers working with manufacturers.  The objective of the Council includes the following:

· Provide a Forum for the sharing of ideas and practices

· Develop an environment of cooperation between manufacturers and governing agencies

· Study/Review concepts related to the continuous improvement of manufacturing operations

· Provide a platform to develop successful business strategies and management leadership techniques

The Manufacturing Council will meet every other month and is open to manufactures only.  Meetings will include lunch at a small fee and presentations on topics of primary interest and value by recognized professionals. 

Significant progress has been made in the achievement of the SCMC’s goals and its members will see a strong return on the time they invest in the bi-monthly meetings which will be featuring guest speakers on timely topics.

Executives of numerous local manufacturers whom have expressed their solid support for the SCMC and the benefits it will provide to them. An additional side benefit that may occur would be in the utilization of products and services among the SCMC members themselves. The interface among local manufacturers in a customer/vendor relationship will provide advantages of reduced freight cost and improved on-time delivery performance but would also provide the opportunity for face –to– face dialogue on technical projects

“A strong manufacturing sector is critical to the health of the economy,” said Alice Sullivan, President/CEO of the Temecula Valley Chamber of Commerce.  “We are pleased that Jack Mobilia will act as chair of this important committee and look forward to strengthening the manufacturing sector and our local economy as a whole.”
