Sinecera Inc. dba Crown PrecisionET16-0430In the early 2000’s, Lean manufacturing philosophies were introduced to the Company andproduction equipment was upgraded. Lean philosophies allowed the business to control costs,improve quality and on-time delivery.CP continued to expand and started producing complex precision-machined parts with tighttolerances for the aerospace industry. To meet quality objectives and delivery commitments, theCompany purchased ten Vertical CNC Mills and Turning Centers in 2015 and a HorizontalMachining Center was installed in January 2016. In addition, CP recently installed newmanufacturing software, Profit Key. Training is not included in the purchase price of the newequipment and software; however, it is critical to properly operate and implement both.This will be CP’s second ETP Agreement within the last five years. In this new proposal, itsprimary goal is to train employees in the new equipment and manufacturing software. Somecurriculum courses are repeated from the last Agreement; however, there will be no repeattrainees in those courses.Retrainee - Job CreationThe Panel offers incentives to companies that commit to hiring new employees. Training fornewly-hired workers under Small Business will be subject to a lower post-retention wage.CP will hire 10 new employees in production to fill the second (night) shift to support strongproduction demands and meet customer order and delivery requirements. The Job Creationtrainees (Job Number 2) must be hired into “net new jobs” as a condition of contract. The date-ofhire for these trainees will be within the three-month period before contract approval or within theterm-of-contract.Training PlanTraining via Class/lab and Computer-Based Training (CBT) in the following:Business Skills: Training will be offered to all occupations to improve communication skills.Computer Skills: Training will be provided to Administrative Staff to improve productivity usingnew manufacturing software, Profit Key.
