A Dun & Bradstreet Case Study

Preview of the Custom Powder Systems Case Study

Custom Powder Systems Strives for Employee Satisfaction

Custom Powder Systems, founded in 1995 by Denise and Dale “Mac” McIntosh in Springfield, Missouri, designs and manufactures containment and powder-handling equipment for pharmaceutical, food and other industries. With 80 employees and about 90% repeat business, the company’s twin goals have been to grow responsibly and to be the best workplace for its staff, while also managing the inevitable ups and downs of running a manufacturing business.

To strengthen credibility with prospective customers and weather downturns, Custom Powder Systems enrolled in Dun & Bradstreet’s Credibility Concierge service to update and manage its business credit file. As a result the company’s credit profile and industry standing improved, helping win new projects (including work on a pandemic vaccine facility), support continued customer trust and repeat business, and position the firm for higher margins and future growth.
