Creating Jobs in North America
In a competitive global climate, the interconnect and cable assembly industry has
seen jobs leaving North America and being created in China. Higher volume and
commodity type products are well suited for " mass production". The custom
cable assembly market is a different story.
2009 was a challenging year, but ISC was successful in creating jobs in North
America for the custom cable assembly market. A successful outsource support
program has been modeled by ISC to assist OEM's and Cable Assembly
companies to develop custom overmold capabilities internally.
Our customers engaged ISC to support their manufacturing operations and
added 21 molding machines to their factories in 2009, as ISC produced over 350
new overmolds. The resulting job creation from these activities was
approximately 230 jobs in North America.
In the fast paced global economy, service and time to market can be more
beneficial to the bottom line than the lowest possible cost. ISC has helped to
create the " Gold Standard " for service and support in the custom overmolded
cable assembly market in North America. During the companies 11 year history,

put in place over 65 injection molding machines in North America. The result of
