What makes the Allied Steel Building’s approach to problem solving unique? Clients know us for our solutions-based and limitless mindset, going the extra mile where others can’t or won’t. We’re focused on flexibility and are willing to look at problems from unorthodox angles, since outside-the-box thinking has become our calling card. At the root of this is a culture of innovation that we cultivate across our teams, with our clients, and amongst our many longtime partners and suppliers. Whether we’re investigating new ways of unlocking efficiencies within our processes, investing in new tools or technologies, or exploring new avenues for partnerships, we embrace collaboration and innovation as essential parts of our growth story. Here’s a look at how we’ve been growing recently.<\/p>\n

\"Allied<\/p>\n

Unlocking New Advantages through Automation<\/h2>\n

In 2024 we opened our second manufacturing facility\u2014 complete with a first-of-its-kind robotics and automation line. By investing in industry leading technology and customizing it to meet our unique needs, we successfully boosted assembly production efficiency by 500%, all while reducing assembly errors, minimizing energy use, and increasing safety metrics within our facility.<\/p>\n

Achieving this required an entirely new approach to fabrication. To do so, we collaborated with Zeman and Lincoln Electric and adapted their machines to our needs. Through teamwork and collaboration from every corner of our company, we created a manufacturing operation that not only delivers superior results for our clients but also sets a new standard for safety, efficiency, and creativity in steel manufacturing.<\/p>\n

Collaborating with Longtime Partners<\/h2>\n

Identifying better ways of doing things takes collaboration and it’s thanks to the relationships that we’ve built with our many long-term partners, that we’ve been able to co-create solutions with some of the best names in our business.<\/p>\n

From designing our first-of-its-kind fabrication facility with our friends at IP Grupo<\/a>, to overcoming supply shortages and sourcing or expediting project-critical materials, we enthusiastically explore collaborative opportunities that have fueled our shared growth with our partners over the years. We are firm believers in collaboration being essential to unlocking innovation and that extends beyond our immediate team members too.<\/p>\n

Empowering a Culture of Bold New Ideas<\/h2>\n

Innovation starts with our people and at Allied we work hard to ensure that everyone feels empowered to bring new ideas to the table. This begins with encouraging communication across all levels of our organization and making sure every voice has opportunities to be heard. Our executives prioritize time with all of our team members and provide the training, resources, and mentorship needed to help every team member reach their career goals. This support empowers everyone at every level of our organization to lean in with new ideas and sparks innovative conversations that form the foundation of our success as a company.<\/p>\n

\"Allied<\/p>\n

Bringing it All Together<\/h2>\n

To really make the most of all of these efforts, we recently developed our own Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system\u2014 Allied 360 (A360). This custom-built system is an integration of various operations-critical tools and software, that together create an ecosystem of seamless communication across every part of the business. The end result so far: increased visibility both across our organization and for our clients, increased efficiency, and most importantly, an improved customer experience. Looking ahead, A360 will be a cornerstone of our strategy to scale efficiently, improve accountability, and deliver superior results to our clients. It\u2019s a prime example of how Allied invests in innovation to drive progress and set new standards in the industry.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead we’re excited about new opportunities for future collaboration and we have to say, the future’s looking bright!<\/p>\n
