What does it take to build a manufacturing and supply chain company that continues to evolve, innovate, and earn the trust of global brands? In this episode of Making Manufacturing Fun, Cool & Sexy Podcast, ALOM CCO Fiona Lowbridge sits down with host Christine Holly Ngo, to discuss ALOM’s Silicon Valley roots and the strategy that has shaped the company’s tech-driven supply chain approach since day one.

Fiona shares how ALOM has built a unique execution model that seamlessly integrates physical, digital, and financial supply chain requirements.

In this Shop Floor video ALOM COO Brandon Marugg shares why engineering customer supply chain and order fulfillment operations to shine when their breakthrough moment arrives has been one of the most rewarding aspects of his career. Behind every successful breakthrough story is an operational foundation built for flexibility, scalability, and execution. When demand shifts overnight, having the right people, processes, and systems in place can make the difference between delighting thousands of new customers each day or failing while under the spotlight. This is where ALOM excels: helping customers succeed when opportunity knocks.

In this Shop Floor video Sr. Operations Manager Tyler Anderson highlights how ALOM solved a customer cable labeling and kitting challenge, engineered to reduce install time, eliminate connection errors, and support on-time deployment. By printing and applying clear connection labels, then bundling color-coded cables into ready-to-deploy kits in an ESD-controlled environment, this upstream execution removes friction, ensures quality, and saves valuable time in the field.

Sr. Operations Manager Juan Guzman presents a quick demo of how ALOM Operations teams use wireless finger scanner technology ion the shop floor to instantly capture product serial numbers and bin location barcodes handsfree. The technology supports accurate inventory management and order fulfillment processing with full product/status traceability.

Protecting fragile products and protecting the planet are no longer at odds. In this Shop Floor demo, VP of Operations Eric Schelm shows how replacing plastic bubble wrap with curbside-recyclable Geami paper to pack and ship delicate products safely and sustainably reduces waste, speeds packing, and creates a positive unboxing experience for end-users.

Transcript:
Okay, so another thing that we’re looking at is in regards to sustainability and where we have blast product for the customer that is fragile and can be damaged in transit. In the past, we used a bunch of bubble wrap and a couple of different cartons to secure that. Now we’re transitioning to what’s called a Geami wrap. And this is a curb, recyclable, friendly product that also provides great protection for the product. So basically, we take a bottle we then wrap it and then pull it off and then place it in the shipping carton. It’s faster than the old process. It’s curbside recyclable and is a better experience for the user as well. Safe and secure and ready to ship.

COO Brandon Marugg shares a story from a Fortune 100 Silicon Valley technology customer of why commitment and flexibility over time are more important than a quick win to build a trusted, long-term supply chain customer relationship.

Transcript:
Hey there, it’s Brandon Marugg, your friendly neighborhood COO standing in our Fremont facility here at ALOM. And, you know, with our customers, we’re not really looking for a romance. We’re looking for a long-term commitment, a long-term relationship, one where we help each other grow. And in fact, we’re coming up on the 20th anniversary of one of our largest customers, a Fortune 100 tech company here in Silicon Valley. And we couldn’t be prouder about that. And we continue to do new programs for them all the time. I remember a fun story from years ago was we had a Christmas tree delivery project for them, where we orchestrated delivering live Christmas trees to thousands of different stores throughout the country on the same day. And that was quite the experience that we had with them. And they were delighted, and we had fun. And, you know, I hope you’re in a good relationship with your supplier, and if you’re not, we’re here.
