Strategic Growth SPI Automation recently merged two established automation firms and was subsequently acquired by Grote Company (Oct 2024) and Vanmark Equipment LLC (Oct 2024), indicating ongoing consolidation and potential for cross-sell of integrated automation solutions and expanded service scopes with larger buyer networks.

Industry Reach With expertise in food and beverage, craft brewing automation, automotive/aerospace, material handling, and distribution centers, target opportunities exist across high-volume manufacturing sectors that may require scalable control panels, process control, vision systems, and production line automation.

Technical Credentials Certified capabilities as CSIA Integrator, Rockwell and FANUC integrator partners, and Inductive Automation integrator position SPI as a trusted supplier for turnkey automation projects, enabling easier engagements for manufacturers seeking certified integration partners.

Capabilities Stack Strong in design build, panel fabrication, PLC migrations, commissioning, and industrial networking, plus a robust team of controls and mechanical engineers, creating upsell potential for upgrades, migrations from legacy systems, and start-up support in modernization projects.

Growth Signals Past recognition at FANUC conferences and a revenue range of 25-50 million with a mid-sized employee base suggests reliability and capacity to undertake mid-to-large scale projects, presenting opportunities to pursue multi-site deployments and expansion contracts with expansive manufacturing networks.
