LEARNING LESSONS

Leading-edge software and training gains competitive edge for Innovative Refrigeration Industrial Systems.

Innovative Refrigeration System updates the old adage of “a little education goes a long way” to 21st century standards. “Underlying everything we do is safety and quality,” notes president Mike McGinnis. “These aren’t just some buzzwords or project paraments—they define how we run the company. A proactive commitment to safe operation is the only way to run our business responsibly and effectively. And the only way to serve our customers is to provide the highest quality.”

So what’s the best mechanism to ensure meeting if not exceeding achievement of these twin objectives? Training. Not just run-of-the-mill take a course here or there, or even completion of a trade school certification program, but a commitment to ongoing employee education and skills improvement that is part and parcel of the company culture.

“Here at Innovative, we’re genuinely passionate about investing in our employees and helping them become the best at what they do,” McGinnis says. “We’re committed to making sure our employees have the education and experience needed to excel. Their success leads directly to the success of the company and the success of our customers in using our services.”

Indeed, Innovative’s commitment to training using state-of-the-art facilities and software delivery systems is so widely recognized for its thoroughness and effectiveness that even competitors attend some of its course offerings!
