Creation Technologies: Where Innovation Meets Excellence

The manufacturing sector—across countries—took a severe blow from the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies that pivoted to devising survival strategies triumphed this adversity exceptionally.
Adversity or not, such companies encompass the potential to change paradigms and industry landscapes altogether through their innate inclination towards innovation and their drive to achieve business excellence.
One company that evidently exhibits such characteristics is Creation Technologies, an award-winning global Electronics Manufacturing Services provider headquartered in Boston, MA.
From design to manufacturing and logistics services, Creation Technologies provides global, customized, and scalable solutions for customers requiring a focused and responsive design and manufacturing partner for medium-volume, complex electronic products. “Our priority is not to win a customer order, but to connect with the right customers and form lifetime partnerships,” says Todd Baggett, the Chief Commercial Officer.
Creation Technologies provides a considerable level of customer support and service for OEM customers in the Aerospace & Defense, Medical, and Tech Industrial markets. The company specializes in low to mid-volume production and high complexity in a way that its competitors struggle to match.
Prevailing Challenges
Sharing his opinion on the impact of the current pandemic on the manufacturing business, Todd says, “The pandemic has created a great deal of uncertainty for manufacturers, with dramatic swings in customer demand for products, both up and down. Supply chain issues for raw materials and components have further compounded the challenges. Most important of all however, has been the work required to ensure the health and safety of our employees.”
Talking about how Creation Technologies overcame the challenges imposed by the pandemic, Todd explains, “Given the nature of our products, we are deemed as essential manufacturing services, which requires our employees to come to our facilities every day during the pandemic. We implemented strict protocols regarding masks, social distancing, sanitization, etc. We are proud to say that we had little, if any workplace transmission of the COVID virus.”
Light of Guidance
We asked Todd for his views on the importance of aligning one’s business with the latest technological developments to which he said, “It is critical to stay apprised of and on the leading edge of manufacturing technology. Customers expect continuous improvement in productivity and quality, and the latest manufacturing equipment and software solutions are big enablers on this journey.”
In his advice to the aspiring entrepreneurs who wish to venture into the manufacturing space, Todd suggests, “Avoid trying to be ‘everything to everybody’ and start with a clear focus of the types of customers you want to serve and your specific positioning within your desired markets.  Creation Technologies has been in business very successfully for over 30 years. One of our keys to success is focused customer targeting and selection, based on our company’s value proposition.”
Towards New Horizons
Creation Technologies focuses on high complexity, low to mid volume electronics manufacturing, which the company estimates to be a $15B market in North America.
Today, Creation Technologies enjoys a 5% share in that market space, thus it has plenty of market share to be harvested within its targeted segments.
“We will remain laser-focused on serving our customers in this segment better than our competition. With that focus, we plan to exceed $1B in revenue within the next 5 years,” Todd concludes.
