Emergency Off-Load/Die Takeover Specialists

In an age of rapid consolidation, Ice Industries has become an increasingly attractive solution for customers suddenly faced with an insolvent, distressed or uncompetitive stamping supplier.

Our diversification strategy continues to provide dividends for Ice and our customers. Our large portfolio of customers across various markets has allowed for stable volumes, profitable results and financial stability – even as the domestic automotive sector wrestles with unprecedented softness and structural change.

In the last two years alone, Ice has successfully launched multiple high-volume die takeover programs encompassing over 450 individual dies – often over a weekend with little or no bank and without the luxury of time.

Our successful track record for seamless die takeover launches hinges on our strict adherence to robust program management practices and a sense of urgency from our people that matches your own. As an automotive Tier I and II supplier ourselves, we understand better than anyone that you can’t afford to disrupt your customers’ production lines. We have a solid reputation of helping our customers when they need us the most.

If you find yourselves in a situation where your current supplier increasingly shows signs of financial distress, has already filed for bankruptcy or is becoming increasingly uncompetitive – why not put the emergency off-load/die takeover team at Ice to work for you?

We’ll make the transition from your current supplier to Ice Industries seamless – with parts as good or better than those you receive today. We will work hard to PPAP your parts and protect your end customers’ production schedules – while committing to maintain and improve the performance of your tooling and dies
over time.

Takeover Program Management Discipline
A successful die takeover is only as good as the planning process preceding the tool move. That’s why we have put a robust program management discipline in place that actively works with the participating Ice Industries plant to ensure that your transition to Ice is seamless and flawless. Our detailed takeover checklist considers everything necessary to understand the unique challenges of your program and to anticipate your needs. Once we’ve assessed the project with you, our program management gate reviews ensure that adequate resources are dedicated and that the program remains on schedule.
