Decision Associates M&A Helps Specialty Machining Company Expand

Erie, PA, December 04, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Decision Associates M&A, LLC, recently added Time Machine, a specialty machining company based in Polk, Pa., to a growing list of clients that have engaged the consulting firm to support growth plans via acquisition.

“For highly successful companies, an acquisition can be the best strategy to drive continued revenue growth and diversification,” said Don Moore, managing partner of Decision Associates M&A. “Time Machine challenged us to find a company with a proprietary product and componentry that would match their own specialty machining processes. We found an ideal fit in Skinner Engine.”

Moore explained that Skinner Engine is a small company focused on engineering and manufacturing steam turbines that are in use around the world. Skinner has been making steam engines of one type or another for more than 100 years.

“This is a win-win for Time Machine and Skinner,” noted B.J. Lechner, Moore’s partner at Decision Associates M&A. “The two companies’ core capabilities are very complementary. What’s more, both companies are based in western Pennsylvania and committed to sustaining opportunities for their employees and the communities in which they live.”

Decision Associates M&A is affiliated with Decision Associates, a full-service business consulting firm offering strategic planning, marketing, executive recruitment, organizational development and succession/exit planning. With corporate headquarters at 1540 East Lake Rd., Erie, Pa., Decision Associates serves clients in manufacturing, professional services, nonprofit, healthcare and the public sector.
