An Extraordinary Era Comes to a Close

An impressive era comes to an end. Trialon's Fenton Road Lab (FRL) was the first dedicated testing facility for the Engineering and Test Division of Trialon Corporation. FRL started in 1984 with a 120 day contract with Delphi, formerly AC Spark Plug, which was extended many times through a remarkable 27 year run. The facility officially completed its last test and closed its doors on September 30, 2011.

Trialon Corporation Employee's join Wegman's LPGA Golf Championship in Rochester, NY.

(L toR) Murri Decker and Gene Kobos

Murri Decker and Gene Kobos  of Trialon Corporation were EMT volunteers at this year’s Wegma’s LPGA Golf Championship held in Rochester, NY.  They were teamed with other EMT crews to be on active duty in the event of a medical emergency.  They both have successfully completed New York State’s Certified First Responder training and this event helped them gain real world experience.

EMT members working the event were stationed at locations around the course to respond to any medical situation and administer first aid as required.  Some of the team was mobile around the course so that the stationary teams could be relieved on a timely basis and provide needed supplies.  The team was exposed to some small emergencies through their duty, but the experience of responding on a timely basis and providing the needed care was gratifying.  

Murri’s and Gene’s services were greatly appreciated by the Medical team at the tournament because, unlike most of the other support people, the medical support volunteers are required to have certifications and training not mandated for the other crews.  Their presence was requested for later in the tournament and also for next year’s event.  Great job Murri and Gene!

Congratulations to Mark Zook, the Newest Member to the 20 Year Service Club!

 

Mark Zook began his career with Trialon Corporation on July 16, 1990 as a Facilities Technician at Trialon’s FGK lab located in Kokomo, Indiana. Mark was responsible for routine and non-routine maintenance of the facilities, equipment, and grounds. In 1995 FGK doubled in size as did Mark's responsibilities, taking on the role of Lead Facilities Technician. In 1997 Mark’s responsibilities increased again as Delphi added a Vibration Lab to FGK.

Mark's attitude and persistence are two of the many things that have made him so successful during the years. After years of taking such great care of Trialon’s equipment some of our clients started requesting that Trialon service their equipment. In 2000 Mark started taking care of the equipment located in Westfield, Indiana for Delphi. Taking care of the Westfield equipment was one of Trialon’s first Independent Maintenance jobs. From this point forward Mark took on several customers such as Ingersol Rand, Harman Becker and United Technologies just to name a few.

Mark worked between FGK, Westfield and various Service customers for the next few years until 2005 at which point he relocated to Trialon’s newly opened Reliability Test Center (RTC) in Kokomo, IN. In 2009 Mark was reassigned to Trialon’s Validation Technical Center (TVTC) in Kokomo, IN. Mark has never backed down on a repair challenge and continues to do an Outstanding Job.

Job well done Mark, congratulations on your 20 years with Trialon!!

Trialon Wins Contract Manufacturing Labor for Delphi’s New Electric Vehicle Component Manufacturing Facility in Kokomo, IN!
 

Delphi officials are moving ahead on a new electric vehicle component manufacturing facility in Kokomo, in part thanks to a $50 million local tax abatement passed Monday.

Delphi officials at Monday's Kokomo Common Council meeting said the new facility on Morgan Street will operate like a new business startup, rather than as a new division of the worldwide components manufacturer.

"This is a new product and a new technology. It's like starting up a new company," said Kevin Clancy, general director of human resources.

In the short term, that will mean keeping production costs low.

Engineers at the electric vehicle component operation will "be a mix, like we've always done," Clancy said, referring to the blend of in-house and outsourced engineering staff at the Delphi Electronics and Safety headquarters.

The "techs," those who will build the newly designed components, will be hired through Trialon, a human resources outsourcing firm. Techs will make between $10 and $12 an hour, with benefits through Trialon, Clancy said.

Work is already under way at the former WIS Sheet Metal building, 1501 E. 200 South (Morgan Street), according to Lisa Hardwick, plant manager.

"We're in debugging mode right now. We're debugging all of the machinery as it's brought in, and we have vendors in retrofitting the building," she said.

Operations should start in the third quarter, she said, with full production volume arriving in 2013 or 2014.

According to a statement of benefits submitted to the city of Kokomo, Delphi plans to add 118 new jobs and retain 72 jobs through the new operation, which will also utilize space at the current Delphi location on Lincoln Road.

In return, the city council agreed to a five-year personal property tax abatement on up to $50 million in new machinery needed for the operation.

Last year, Delphi received an $89.3 million U.S. Department of Energy grant to produce electric-hybrid technology in Kokomo.

Delphi is matching the grant--up to $178.6 million--representing a three-year investment to advance the development of low-cost manufacturing of electric-drive vehicles in the U.S.

Last year, when President Barack Obama announced the grant, he specifically said the money would be spent on operations in Kokomo. City officials, however, said Monday the location of the project was in doubt for some time.

Monday, Clancy acknowledged previous concerns the facility might not locate in Kokomo.

"When we found out about being selected for the award last August, Delphi expected to own the plant on Lincoln Road," Clancy said. "Under the Delphi bankruptcy agreement, GM acquired that site, so therefore Delphi needed to find another manufacturing site."

Clancy credited state and city officials for the final location of the facility.

"The quick response by the Indiana Economic Development Corp. and the city of Kokomo was a critical reason why Kokomo was chosen for the site," he said.

    Trialon Working With HiredOnTheSpot.com at Career Expo!
     

    FOX 2 news has uncovered a new development on the job front. This could be the beginning of what we have been waiting to see -- the end of the nightmare for many.

    They had to open the doors early there were so many people at this career expo, but for the first time we've witnessed something we haven't seen before at any of the job fairs in which we've participated. Companies now looking for workers that tell us they just got the word that they can hire.

    "As we were sitting here at the job fair, my phone rang and it was my client asking for five more people. So, we're so excited," said Lisa Crawford with Diversified Industrial Staffing. They supply engineering and construction companies.

    Their story is not an isolated incident.

    "The recovery is starting right now, and we're seeing our suppliers calling us saying we need immediate needs right now in the automotive sector. We need needs in the defense sector. So, they're calling us, and we are hiring people from production workers to engineering managers," said Matthew Karrandja with Trialon.


    So, what's happening out there? Robert Garcia at Gonzales Design says that the ripple effect is now heading positive.

    "They're building more cars now and it's trickling down to our large, tier one suppliers," said Garcia. "They're finally contacting us and they're creating jobs now because we see that things are getting a little bit better, and they want to hire contract people versus direct hires."

    However, there are jobs for direct hires and they're opening up at Chrysler.

    "We are looking for business unit leaders within metro Detroit... We have a variety of positions open on our Chrysler Careers Web site," said Kris Philips with Chrysler.

    Let's hope this is a trend.

    The job expo was sponsored by the Orion Township Chamber of Commerce, UAW Local 5960 Retirees and HiredOnTheSpot.com.
