As technology continues to evolve quickly, it is exceedingly important for businesses across all industries to keep themselves current. The same is true for companies involved in manufacturing, as all operational requirements must remain up to date to keep employees safe and a business moving forward.

According to WCSI, NSK Corporation and NSK Precision America, Inc. are expanding their businesses in Johnson County, Indiana. NSK manufactures automotive components for the industrial and automotive industries, such as ball bearings, precision ground ball screws. Specifically, 46 new jobs will be created by 2016.

"Manufacturing remains a powerhouse of Indiana's economy, sparking new investments in our state," Victor Smith, Indiana Secretary of Commerce told WCSI. "NSK is the latest global company to recognize that Indiana's strong workforce, low-tax policies and convenient location make it a state that works for manufacturing."

The news source added that NSK has plans to add more machine operators, manufacturing associates, engineers and quality control associates in October to the current 400-employee team in Franklin.

Brian Lindsay, chief executive officer of NSK Americas, explained to WCSI that NSK has been successfully working in Indiana for two decades. He added that the company is excited to continue to create and develop new technologies with a willing and qualified workforce.

As companies undergo similar expansions, an update to any manufacturing software could be necessary. Especially as numerous industries—manufacturing included—are becoming more dependent on evolving technologies, it is important for organizations to be able to offer the latest solutions to their customers.

Other firms that are interested in their own manufacturing projects should partner with an Indiana business management software systems provider. That way, companies can be sure to find the most comprehensive manufacturing software solutions to meet their needs.
