End of an Era, Beginning of a New Chapter
After 46 years of building, innovating, and solving tough problems, Sisson Engineering is officially closing its doors as a machining facility. It’s been one hell of a ride, filled with precision craftsmanship, problem-solving, and relationships that have meant the world to me. Thank you to our employees, customers, vendors, and friends for your trust and support over the years.
But this isn’t the end, far from it.
I’m excited to announce the launch of Sisson Performance, a manufacturing and business operations advisory firm. With decades of real-world experience, I’ve seen it all, the triumphs and the challenges, the wins and the setbacks. Having run a business for 46 years, I’ve gained invaluable insights into what works, what doesn’t, and how to navigate the tough times. Now, I’m ready to help other businesses tackle their own obstacles and grow more effectively.
At Sisson Performance, we specialize in:
🔹 Operations & Efficiency Optimization – Eliminating waste and fixing bottlenecks
🔹 Manufacturability & Production Strategy – Smarter design for manufacturability
🔹 Leadership & Team Development – Strengthening management and employee engagement
🔹 Crisis Management & Problem-Solving – Navigating big challenges
What I’ve learned along the way:
🔹 People matter most – Success isn’t just about the work; it’s about the people.
🔹 Challenges build resilience – Every tough time taught me adaptability and the value of a great team.
🔹 Integrity pays off – Long-term decisions always outweigh short-term gains.
From successes to setbacks, I’ve adapted and learned through it all, and now I’m bringing that knowledge to businesses seeking hands-on, practical guidance to improve operations and move forward with confidence.
If you need expert advice on manufacturing or business strategy, let’s talk.
