What the Industry is Saying

Larry Davis
Doran Associates

Over the years I’ve worked with Grayhill, they have consistently proven themselves a top performer in customized, value-added applications. Their willingness to examine new ideas, and to modify their products to suit a particular application, has been very beneficial. They combine consistent attention to detail with an interest in the success of their customers.



John O’Brien Jr., CPMR
Coakley, Boyd and Abbett

In my opinion, one of Grayhill’s key strengths is accessibility to engineering.  Many other companies have layers of people through which special requests must be routed.  This delays response time and makes booking orders more difficult.  With Grayhill, once a request is submitted to engineering, person-to-person communication begins immediately. This approach is the key to clear communication and effective collaboration.

With changes in technology, it is nearly impossible for an OEM to stay on track without encountering a steep learning curve.  Grayhill is manufacturing dozens of designs for diverse applications and markets, allowing them to stay consistently involved in ever-changing technology.  With an emphasis on quickly getting to market, Grayhill has the experience and expertise to guide a customer's design from concept to production.  This experience overcomes such unforeseen issues as manufacturability of a given design -- increasing the production yield while minimizing product return issues.



Rick Knight
Fralia Company & Associates

Grayhill has a very professional engineering design staff with extensive custom product capabilities. We have had great success in designing products for our customers using Grayhill's value add products that become part of the customer's overall system. Grayhill can also design and build the complete customer system with the customer name affixed on the box.



Don Campbell
VP of Product Development, Stellartone

I'm writing to thank Grayhill for the superb job they've done in creating customized componentry for Stellartone's new musical instrument product.  Even though we are a small company, we received the quality attention and quick response time enjoyed by the big manufacturers.

Grayhill's engineering team worked closely with Stellartone to create the ideal custom solution at the right price. Not only was the new product executed perfectly, but ahead of schedule. Without reservation, we highly recommend Grayhill for custom fabrication at small order quantities.  The superb quality of the final product and our high customer approval ratings will ensure that our future order quantities will no longer be small!



R. Scott Nusbaum
Vice President
CTN Data Service, Inc.

Throughout the customization process, Grayhill was very responsive and our local rep was always available to answer questions. Working directly with the design team helped to streamline the process and deliver the precise configuration we needed. They asked very insightful questions and helped prioritize our objectives. And they were happy to accommodate lower-volume order minimums as low as 100 units. Grayhill's knowledgeable approach made the customization process very cost-effective for us.

Grayhill’s customization expertise has allowed us to put a lot of targeted functionality into a single unit. The finished product looks great, works dependably, and has a unique set of features that streamline data management. Grayhill’s design engineers were fast, diligent and easy to work with. Once they understood our vision, they gave us valuable insights on how to address our challenges more cost-effectively. I’d characterize Grayhill engineers as dependable, knowledgeable problem-solvers.



Design Engineer
Key Supplier of Advanced Technology Products & Services

Grayhill design engineers are very accommodating. They can tailor and apply their expertise to a broad range of applications. For several years, we have told them what we want, defined our requirements and objectives; and they have continued to deliver no matter how complex the challenge. 



Project Engineer

Grayhill's customization approach is both time-efficient and collaborative. Their engineers function as a seamless extension of our in-house professional staff; and their skill with multiple development platforms allows them to flesh out our preliminary designs and streamline production. Being able to work directly with Grayhill design engineers really helps to maximize communication and shorten turnaround time as each unique design is finalized.



Engineering Project Manager
Major Worldwide Construction and Agricultural Equipment Firm

Grayhill engineers do an excellent job of listening to our needs and helping to define what we're looking for. They get involved in the process early, and help us devise innovative solutions. We appreciate their responsiveness, their knowledgeability, and the fact that we're able to work with them one-on-one to optimize efficiency.



Purchasing Manager
Major Worldwide Construction and Agricultural Equipment Firm

For us, Grayhill products initially stood out for their ruggedness and reliability. There was a strong perception that they would meet our durability goals. Since then, we've specified our requirements and collaborated with Grayhill to execute customized designs. Their engineers are very knowledgeable and responsive to work with.



Software Developer
Major Worldwide Construction and Agricultural Equipment Firm

Grayhill excels at collaborating and sharing information. The project engineers seem to specialize in fast response time, which makes the collaborative customization process much more time- and cost-efficient.



Electrical Design Engineer
Major Worldwide Construction and Agricultural Equipment Firm

Grayhill engineers were very responsive to my requests and came up with solutions for getting me what I needed.  I would put Grayhill engineers at the top of my list when it comes to addressing durability/technical requirements. I have been very impressed.
