Growth strategies for in-plants was the theme of another session given by NAPL's Howie Fenton. He encouraged in-plants to monitor their break even points at least quarterly, and monthly in bad times. Create procedures to track costs and revenue, he said. Find the 20 percent of your customers who provide 80 percent of your work and focus on them. Also, he said, look for new opportunities; don't be complacent with the type of work you've always done. And look constantly for ways to cut costs, like replacing retiring staff with temps and negotiating leases with options to downsize.
