“Our experience with Plante & Moran has been consistently positive. We’ve developed a great relationship with the team, and we appreciate their continuous communication. With most firms, you tend to see them once a year for your audit, but Plante & Moran strives to truly understand our business. They’re skilled, experienced, and extremely responsive to our needs. We thoroughly enjoy working with them.”
“Plante & Moran has assisted us with a multitude of services, from auditing to manufacturing consulting to strategic planning to family and estate planning. Regardless of our needs, they bring a level of intelligence to every situation; they’re consummate professionals.
In the role of manufacturing consulting, they’ve served as consultants to our board of directors. In addition, we’ve participated in several benchmarking studies conducted by both Plante & Moran and the Precision Metalforming Association; those studies have been extremely helpful, not only in terms of benchmarking the Su-Dan Company but also in helping us fulfill our QS and TS certification requirements.”

"There's a lot of uncertainty in the automotive industry right now, and I'd been working from a compass that wasn't giving me true direction. Jeff [Mengel's] name kept coming up – two different people suggested I talk with him – so Jeff came out to Chicago and gave me an aerial view of what's happening. We're basically foot soldiers; we see everything at eye level. So it was so valuable to have that aerial view – supported by data. Everything suddenly made sense. In an hour and a half, Jeff provided me with the information to redevelop my business model. I can now feel reasonably confident that the direction I'm going in is the right one.
