Inventus Power, a global leader in the design and manufacture of battery packs, chargers and power supplies for a broad range of markets and applications, announced that it recently established two divisions within the company to better meet the varying needs and unique requirements of its global OEM customers. In turn, key investments have been made in R&D, capital/equipment, infrastructure and staffing/talent management at its U.S. manufacturing location and corporate headquarters in Woodridge, Illinois.
“In order to support our diversified market portfolio in a more efficient manner, we created two structures; a Commercial, Industrial & Consumer division (CIC) and a Medical & Military division (M&M),” said Patrick Trippel, President & CEO. “Our CIC customers typically launch higher volume and velocity programs that undergo shorter development times, while our M&M customers more often develop highly engineered and highly regulated devices with longer development times.” Both divisions will be structured with Strategic Account Management teams to drive excellence and efficiency from pre-award through mass production.

As with all Inventus Power facilities that build healthcare products, its U.S. location also follows a Patient Priority Program, a behavior-based quality program designed to elevate the importance of safety, people and quality in the manufacturing process, These cornerstone programs are a baseline for creating customer value and we will continue to foster a culture of empowerment and accountability for its employees.

The new divisional market structure coupled with its key investments in the U.S. and globally are expected to lead to record growth in 2018 and beyond. “Inventus Power is well positioned within the growing battery industry and our continued investments will enable us to provide superior value to our global OEM customers by exceeding their expectations in the areas of service, quality, reliability, ethics and innovation,” said Mr. Trippel.
