We are all in together so we can be all in for our customers.
Last week a group of us from the Baltimore office made the trip to the Goodfellow sales office in Pittsburgh. It was a great chance to reconnect, train, and roll up our sleeves on strategy. More than anything, the visit reminded me of Gian-Paul Gonzalez’s “All In” mantra that he shared in his TED Talk.
For me, all in means exactly what we are doing at Goodfellow. We are not a group of separate companies loosely tied together. With Potomac, Sussie Technology Partners, BAS, and Goodfellow, we are one company with one mission. To serve our customers in the best way possible.
That mission is simple and powerful. Provide customers with direct access to the best materials in the world. Help them turn those materials into precision micro fabricated parts. Support them in validating and moving ideas into production.
Take a medical device company as an example. Imagine they need a biocompatible polymer sourced in small quantities for R&D, custom laser cut into an implantable device, and then tested to meet tight regulatory standards. In the past, they might have had to call three or four different suppliers, manage timelines across multiple vendors, and take on the risk of things not lining up. With Goodfellow today, it is one call. They can source the certified material, fabricate the exact features, and move directly into validation. Without losing time or quality. That is what all in looks like in action.
When we are all in, every team and every office is aligned behind this mission. We are all in together so we can be all in for our customers. It is not about individual wins. It is about collective success. That is how we deliver more value, more efficiency, and more innovation for our customers.
The Pittsburgh trip drove that point home. We are not just Goodfellow, Potomac, Sussie Technology Partners, and BAS. We are Goodfellow. All in.
