Heroes of American Manufacturing: AMG Engineering & Machining

Through nearly thirty years of experience, AMG Engineering &amp; Machining, a client of the Purdue Manufacturing Extension Partnership (Purdue MEP), has successfully served the aerospace, automotive, industrial and medical industries. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business employing approximately 50 people, AMG is committed to helping customers achieve their objectives while maintaining the highest standards for quality, integrity, respect, and honesty in all situations and relationships. Each of their CNC machines has a program to make a particular part. If those programs are not protected, workers could be injured, equipment could be damaged or bad parts could be made. These risks are averted following cybersecurity rules. The challenges with cybersecurity were many and they reached out to Purdue MEP, part of the MEP National Network. One of the first projects Purdue MEP assisted AMG with was meeting the mandatory cybersecurity requirements to work with the Department of Defense. This enabled them to quickly get to a point where they met the NIST 800-171 requirements for cybersecurity. The Industry 4.0 initiative is now and affords AMG the opportunity to be among the companies that are progressive and moving forward. What makes AMG Engineering unique is their wide range of capabilities. AMG feels a responsibility to make the world a little better and is looking forward to completing their efforts to achieve a high level of Industry 4.0.<br>
