The robust development of Asia's industrial sector coupled with technological advancements is inducing market appetite for the latest machine tools. With surging demand for metal-based products, particularly in the automotive and industrial sectors, companies are looking for innovative solutions and partnerships that will increase their competitive edge. Aware of these growing activities for automated work, Malaysia's leading contract metal manufacturer, Local Basic, matches the needs of Asia's industrial markets.

A specialist in metal manufacturing processes, Local Basic enhanced its core service to create a comprehensive turnkey programme, providing clients with simple, integrated and cost-effective manufacturing solutions. From metal-part casting to final assembly, Local Basic controls the quality of a product up to its delivery.

"Every project starts with a blueprint. We transform the client's design into an actual metal part by applying our technical knowledge," says Jason Teoh, managing director.

Optimising products for customers, Local Basic cuts production time and transportation costs. It helps streamline inventory management as clients need not go to multiple suppliers to get a metal part done. "We created a one-stop solution where we simplify a client's troubles, costs and investments by consolidating all processes under one roof," says Mike Cheng, marketing director.

The company opened its state-of-the-art factory in Gelang Patah in 2005. The facility houses a few production departments equipped with the latest casting and precision machining equipment to support customers' designs and specifications.

It also employs staff programmes that promote continuous improvement of its processes and working environments. Each employee is involved in making the company more competitive through small group activities and corporate social responsibility initiatives. Profit-sharing rewards are given regularly so that people enjoy the fruits of their labour.

Local Basic serves mostly Japanese multinational corporations operating in Asian markets. It also realised the potential of the oil and gas industry and wants to be part of that growing sector. Local Basic seeks to forge partnerships with subsea, onshore and offshore companies in Asia and worldwide.

"The oil and gas industry will continue to champion the economic growth in Asia. There is a lot of room to grow, and Local Basic is ready to serve in this sector," Teoh says. "Malaysia is a stable country with a good mix of local and foreign engineers and specialists. Working with us is a sound solution for manufacturing firms."
