Q2 2024 Company Updates

Summer is upon us, and we are halfway through 2024! I am delighted to share some exciting updates and accomplishments that showcase the dedication and excellence of our team. Your hard work and commitment have propelled us to new heights. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved together.

I am thrilled to announce that JGM has been honored with the ABC STEP Platinum Award. This prestigious recognition is a testament to our unwavering commitment to safety and continuous improvement. Achieving this accolade reflects the collective efforts of each team member to prioritize safety in all aspects of our operations. Congratulations to everyone for making safety our top priority and for your relentless pursuit of excellence.

To meet the demand of our growing team, we have opened a new sales, estimating, and project management office in Downingtown, PA. The new office has a spectacular view of the Downingtown Country Club! The space allows our sales, estimating, and project management teams to be under one roof creating more opportunities for collaboration and an occasional round of golf. If you are in the neighborhood, stop by! The team did an incredible job designing and building out the office.

I am excited to share that JGM has recently secured two significant projects keeping our backlog strong through the end of the year. The first project involves the erection of the new Launch Tower Base, which underscores our expertise in handling complex structural erection projects. Our team is poised to deliver exceptional results, and I have no doubt that we will exceed expectations in this challenging endeavor. The second is the fabrication of another project for the Launch Tower. This is a bottom portion of the actual launch structure on which the rocket booster is mounted. The structure, weighing just over 210 tons and measuring approximately 60′ square and about 8′ high, is comprised of carbon steel plate varying in thickness from 3/4″ to 3″ thick. All of the plate was received at our Sinking Spring location to be processed on our new Kinetic CNC burn table, and fit up and welded at both Sinking Spring and Coatesville shops. It is a challenging project that leverages all our cutting, processing and welding skills.

At JGM, family is our foundation. On Thursday, April 25, we held our 3rd annual Bring Your Child to Work Day. Hank Flynn from FOX 29 Good Day Uncut visited us during the event and we had time on air to talk about the manufacturing industry. Additionally, on Sunday, June 30, JGM employees and their families were invited to JGM’s Family Day at Hersheypark. This was a day dedicated to celebrating our hard work and creating wonderful memories together. We enjoyed thrilling rides, delicious food, and the company of your colleagues and their families. This day was our way of saying thank you for your dedication and contributions to our collective success.

In closing, I want to thank all our teammates, vendors, subcontractors, and clients for their continued support and loyalty. We are excited to finish the year safe and strong

Cheers!
