standards, targeting professional tool users of all types with a
product line that includes more than 500 tools and over 3500

quality remains steadfast, although the way that quality is
ensured has changed drastically. Quality is designed in, using
state-of-the-art technologies and sophisticated tools and
techniques such as Computer-Aided Design, stereo lithography and
other prototype technologies as well as concurrent engineering.
All materials and parts meet Milwaukee's stringent
specifications. Products are then produced in quality focused
factories.
Milwaukee
carries this forward with prompt and complete support to
distributor partners, offering EDI, co-op advertising, training
and training material, and trilingual packaging to meet the
needs of mutual customers – professional power tool users.
The people

themselves. Since late 1990, all of Milwaukee's tool and
accessory manufacturing operations have been arranged in
manufacturing cells consisting of teams of empowered employees.
Cellular manufacturing methods help Milwaukee employees focus on
customer needs; allow for quick response to market demands; and
increase the employee productivity and product quality.
