In 2009, Singh took his first step into the field of machining. By applying his engineering background to the manufacturing process, he quickly became experienced in CNC machine programming and quality control. A decade of work and dedication later, Singh is proud to implement these skills into his own business and be one of the founders of Mann Precision, Inc.

Mann Precision, Inc. is a rising machine shop with a strong foundation in production engineering and over 25 years of hard-earned experience in product design, quality assurance and manufacturing. Nestled in the Hollister California close to Silicon Valley, Mann Precision, Inc. is committed to creating high-quality American-made products at rates cheaper than domestic and competitive with offshore production. Valuing the time and resources of our customers, we are dedicated to guaranteeing on-time delivery and are always available to help our clients meet their production goals, whether that be on weekends, during holidays, or at other off hours.

Currently, Mann Precision, Inc. is equipped with three CNC machines, each running day and night, and all the modern tools and equipment needed for top-quality manufacturing. Thanks to the invaluable support of customers, we are in the process of ordering a fourth CNC machine and further expanding the scope of our operations. We hope to grow to even greater heights by building long-lasting partnerships with our clients and continuing to provide our customers with an unparalleled experience in product manufacturing. We hope to work with you soon!

Does ordering machined parts from offshore save money? In our experience, the answer is no, when relevant supply chain costs are factored.

Offshore parts are more likely to result in product failure due to poor material quality or misaligned feature relationships. Not to mention the increase in international shipping prices and labor has drastically impacted the cost savings that used to exist. Often, the term “low-cost region” is found to be a misnomer once associated costs are recognized.

Total costs consist of many factors. Time to market for new product, standard and expedited air freight, product returns for quality issues, additional billing and payment requirements (Pay on shipment, wire transfer fees, etc.) communication delays due simply to time zones (frequently requiring having company staff working nights to communicate with east Pacific countries), weather events, fuel costs, customs delays and additional reporting. If a bad part is delivered it must be rejected across the world for evaluation before being re-made and re-shipped.

In many companies most of this cost and delay information is departmentalized and can be effectively invisible to purchasing or even supply chain management. This creates price distortion when comparing domestic to offshore suppliers. Many times, a part sold by a domestic supplier nets out far less expensive compared to offshore when total costs are factored.

From working with our customers, we believe that now, more than ever, sourcing your machined parts locally is the best way to gain real savings, both short- and long-term.

Mann Precision, Inc., uses the highest quality raw materials available. The majority of these raw materials are sourced from the United States. The only exception is the addition of one German partner supplying Ugima Stainless for us. Working with Mann Precision means you receive the highest-quality parts made from the highest-quality materials.

Why Parts Made in America are Important

• Sourcing parts overseas requires large inventory purchases and freight charges to ship here. Mann Precision’s dynamic production schedule means your orders are completely customizable by size and delivery date.
• Buying local means shorter lead times for delivery and less energy consumption to deliver your products.
• American metal and plastic materials create the least amount of pollution due to U.S. manufacturing regulations.
• Our employees and the employees of our material suppliers pay federal and state income and sales taxes which benefit both our national and local economies.
• Sourcing parts in the U.S. helps rebuild the skilled machinist workforce that was reduced due to the rise in offshore production over the past two decades, and supports the U.S. manufacturing reshoring movement. It is, ultimately, an investment in our shared future.
• We provide our employees with leading pay and benefits packages, safe working environments, and protection under U.S. labor laws.

Improving Our Corner of the World

When price became more important than value in sourcing products, manufacturing trended offshore and offshoring reduced the skilled machinist workforce in the U.S. As a result, we often can’t find experienced machinists when we need to increase our staff. While that’s a challenge, it’s also an opportunity.

Mann Precision selects employees who have the characteristics necessary to become excellent machinists, and then trains them in the Mann Precision way. Not only do they learn to do things the right way from the start, it helps us maintain our high-quality standards and benefits our industry & our local community.

More expert machinists in the U.S., means skilled manufacturing grows, and so does the economy.
