A Lifelong In-plant Manager
When the in-plant added a four-color, 14x20? Heidelberg GTO in 2005, insourcing really took off. It now comprises more than a third of the in-plant’s business, he says.
“We’re still the only four-color press within 50 miles of Fergus,” Nelson proclaims.
Insourcing, he says, has made his shop a profit center, thus providing more value to Otter Tail. The company, though, has acknowledged the in-plant’s value for years.
