Custom Metal Fabrication in Tempe, AZ

The growth of both GMS and its hometown Tempe, AZ over the last 36 years has been quite amazing.

The story of the once tiny town of Tempe, AZ is interesting

It began as a dusty agricultural center that was settled more than 150 years ago and over time, it has become a cultural, educational, and urban oasis.

Similarly, the scope of manufacturing services that Group Manufacturing Services has come to offer over the past 36 years has grown exponentially.

In today’s market, precision sheet metal manufacturing and CNC machining buyers demand short lead times and on-time delivery.

Fortunately, these are two factors that GMS built our considerable reputation on top of.

As is the case with many of our clients, we engineer, manufacture, and sometimes assemble smaller parts of an altogether larger assembly.

Each piece must meet strict tolerances and quality standards for the entire machine to function correctly.

The way GMS operates is much the same.

Each department is like a highly polished precision metal part that flawlessly works together in unison with all the other parts.

Our precision engineers, custom sheet metal fabricators, CNC machinists, designers, prototypers, sales department, and administrative team all must depend on one another like links in a chain for GMS to function at the highest levels of quality and customer assurance.
