What Pertech does

Pertech, LLC is a privately held Mid-Missouri industrial engineering and machining company founded circa 1993-1994 and headquartered at 51 North Rangeline Rd, Columbia, Missouri. The firm operates with 11-50 employees and delivers turnkey projects spanning initial design, fabrication, electrical build, programming, and on-site startup. Its offering is organized into two integrated product lines: Electrical Solutions (automation controls, custom panel building including MCCs and AC/DC drive panels, PLC/HMI/PC control panels, and electrical engineering for full production-line drawing packages) and Mechanical Solutions (custom machining from prototype to production runs, mechanical engineering including reverse engineering and custom design, and in-house welding, grinding, painting, and cutting).

Pertech's competitive position rests on certified integrator credentials with four major industrial automation platforms — Rockwell Automation, Fanuc, Inductive Automation, and ThinManager — together with an engineering team carrying more than 50 years of collective industrial electrical experience. The company is a Recognized System Integrator with Rockwell (2019), OEE Gold recipient, and ThinManager Integrator Certified. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales: custom projects are quoted individually, scoped through direct engagement with industrial customers, and projects flow through the company's website and direct outreach. There is no disclosed pricing, no subscription product, and no recurring SaaS revenue stream. The customer base is concentrated in industrial manufacturers in the Mid-Missouri region seeking custom machinery, automation systems, and electrical control solutions.

The business is self-sustaining and founder-owned. There is no external institutional investment, no parent company, no disclosed M&A, no funding rounds, and no management team listed in public materials. Marketing is minimal — a company website plus LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram pages — consistent with a relationship-driven regional services firm that sources work through referrals and repeat customers rather than demand generation. The firm is currently operating and has no disclosed regulatory actions, restructurings, or leadership changes.

Others

• Roe Machine & Tool / regional Midwest job shops: Regional Midwest precision machining and contract manufacturing shops overlap with Pertech's mechanical solutions line. These firms are adjacent ecosystem participants rather than direct automation-integration competitors, but compete for the same custom machined parts work.
• Control System Integrators Association (CSIA) member firms: CSIA is the industry association for control system integrators like Pertech. Its broader membership (firms such as RoviSys, MAVERICK Technologies, and Integro) constitutes the competitive set for industrial automation integration work analogous to Pertech's electrical solutions offering.
