Serie-Act shares its development strategy as an industrial painting subcontractor
In the industrial painting industry, the future looks bright for a talented subcontractor who knows how to stand out. This is where Serie-Act now finds itself, as a Groupe Hyperforme partner with an ingenious proven strategy to accommodate large customers.
How did they reach this goal? Carl Acteau, founder of Serie-Act, sheds light on some of his secrets to success.
Become certified as an accredited OEM supplier
Differentiation through competencies has always been part of the development strategy for the industrial subcontractor Serie-Act. This is the reason Mr. Acteau never backed away from the steps to take in order to acquire certifications in industrial and architectural painting.
Certifications the company holds include:
- ISO 9001-2008 certification
- AAMA-2605 certification
His firm is also among those approved by Prévost Car, BRP and Hydro Québec.
Building an approach based on partnership
Mr. Acteau has developed numerous partnerships with his clients since Serie-Act opened its doors. He believes it is more strategic to step into a partnership role rather than that of a supplier in his business relations with them.
This is the reason Mr. Acteau does not hesitate to become involved from the outset during the launch of a project. This allows him to participate in the development of products, prototypes and, by the same token, win the confidence of his customers by displaying his highly specialized skills.
Maintaining an excellent reputation
In an entrepreneurial context, it is necessary to build brand recognition. And this holds true for an industrial painting subcontractor firm.
This is the reason Serie-Act always adheres to the following points when it comes time to complete a project:
- Close adherence to delivery timeframes
- Quality of products used
- High-level customer service
- Quality control management
It is this continuous effort that helped to build a valuable name for the firm’s customers (OEM).
