Our very own Chief Technology Officer, Susan Bear, was featured in the American Foundry Society Casting Source magazine about Grede’s five-year journey to become AI-driven. Once our smart foundry is fully implemented, it’ll enable us to catch quality issues and scrap before they happen. #GoFurtherWithGrede #FromArtToScience #Innovation #technology
In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, we’re spotlighting Jerome Maness, Furnace Operator from our Biscoe, NC, plant. We love hearing him talk about the difference he’s making as a safety ambassador, the best advice he’s ever received, and the projects he’s proud of. Black History Month is an opportunity to celebrate African Americans’ achievements nationwide. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are critical in our workplace, and so is highlighting our incredible workforce. #Diversity #Inclusion #Safety
Last week, we held our first-ever Grede Grad Learning Summit at Grede Headquarters in Southfield, Michigan. During the summit, our five Grede Grads attended sessions about Grede’s history, operational excellence, automation, product engineering, the Grede Sand Standard (GSS), program management, and iron metallurgy. They ended the day with lunch with our executive leadership team. Our Grede Grad program is our two-year rotational management trainee program, part of Grow with Grede, our early career talent development strategy. We’re hiring additional grads now!
