Once the gift-giving ends, it’s time for the quality equipment spending to take off. January is typically when quality professionals start filling their quality wish list.
In our 20th Annual Spending Survey, we’ve looked into who will be purchasing what and why. If you subscribe to the idea that no news is good news, the survey offers a lot of promising results for the quality field. For example, twice as many respondents plan to increase their plant’s software application budget in 2020. Stable spending patterns across many equipment categories mean there’s no surprises ahead, but also no cause for alarm.
