Aerospace Outreach Active participation in aerospace events (Paris Air Show, Aviation Week MRO Americas) and ITAR registrations indicate a strategic focus on aerospace and defense sectors. Sales opportunities exist in expanding precision dowel pins, shafts, and custom solutions to Tier 1/2 aerospace manufacturers and maintenance providers seeking high-accuracy components with regulatory compliance.

Compliance as Value ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D registrations combined with ITAR compliance position Horberg as a trusted supplier for quality-critical applications. Leverage certification credibility to pursue contracts with government contractors and OEMs requiring rigorous quality management and export controls.

Aging to Modernization Longstanding expertise in precision centerless grinding and Swiss screw machining supports upgrades for customers migrating to higher-precision, niche dowel pins and custom shafts. Cross-sell to existing manufacturing clients seeking tighter tolerances, surface finishes, or tailored geometries at a reasonable price.

Regional Alliance Recent partnerships and CT-focused events (Simtech collaboration, CT Manufacturing Careers Roadshow) suggest opportunity to expand within Connecticut and neighboring states through co-marketing, supplier partnerships, and local supplier diversity programs with larger manufacturers seeking regional supply chains.

Growth through Collaboration Active event presence and a mid-size revenue band indicate potential for multi-vendor solutions and integrated assemblies with aerospace and industrial machinery customers. Propose bundled offerings combining dowel pins, taper pins, and precision shafts with value-added services such as quality-inspection reports, on-site support, and rapid prototyping to win larger procurements.
