New Source Corporation’s continued growth means faster service, greater value and enhanced capabilities for our customers. As we expand our warehouse space, increasing our workforce, and broaden our range of services and solutions, we can supply more materials, more efficiently and at greater scale—while maintaining a 99.83% quality rating.
“Investing in our growth allows us to provide customers the best value without raising prices or compromising quality because we stay ahead of the increases in volume and demand. With more inventory, we can fill orders faster while keeping prices low and quality high,” said Jamie Barron, Vice President of New Source Corporation.
Over the past year alone, for example, customers have directly benefited from New Source Corporation’s growing impact on key helicopter and rotary programs, its sharp focus on quick service for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) customers, and our unwavering commitment to quality and service for commercial customers as well as those in the Defense sector.
“With our additional space and product types as well as our proven quality track record, we can support customers with products and services that we didn’t offer before,” Barron said.
Most recently, New Source Corporation has expanded its warehouses in California and Florida, allowing us to stock more aluminum aerospace extrusions, aluminum drawn and seamless tubing, and specialty high-performance alloys. We have increased the size of our California facility by 60 percent and have doubled our space in Florida.
“Our larger warehouse is not only to further expand our extrusion inventory, but also to have the room to store, stock, and supply 6-6-2 titanium sheets, forging, and specialty steels,” Barron said. The growth in 6-6-2 titanium stock reflects New Source Corporation’s role in supporting the next generation of fighter jets.
The new Florida space—totaling 37,000 square feet—will also help New Source Corporation fill orders faster because it is all under one roof, versus being split. Having our office space and warehouse operations under one roof will provide a seamless flow through every step of the order process.
The benefits for New Source Corporation and our customers include:
- More seamless communication between departments for better coordination.
- Reduced material handling time, enabling quicker shipments.
- Improved efficiency, ensuring orders are fulfilled faster.
Everything will be more organized, concise, and efficient,” Barron said.
Florida is also home to our new custom-built Tsune saw, a TK5M-90GL, which allows us to offer high-quality, cut-to-size aerospace aluminum extrusions. “We can easily and quickly handle hundreds of thousands of precision cuts to meet exact specifications,” Barron said.
New Source Corporation’s growth goes beyond our space and services. We’ve also added personnel across the company, including in sales and the warehouse to better serve our customers.
Our Florida warehouse now runs two shifts, early morning and day shifts, maximizing our shipping and receiving time. We’ve also expanded the team at our California warehouse, bringing New Source Corporation’s total headcount to 43 employees nationwide, an increase of about 40 percent since January 2024.
In expanding our team, facilities, products and services, New Source Corporation has always put our customers first. The increase in personnel has allowed us to keep our stock lead times to under a week as well as facilitate same day AOG expedites. Additionally, we can now offer certain new mill runs with lead times of 13-14 weeks because our manufacturing partners have increased our allocation as our capacity and market share have increased.
Even as we scale, quality remains non-negotiable. Not only do we have a 99.83% quality rating, but we received a 5/5 PEAR score on our most recent audit.
“We’re going to ensure that quality is never compromised as we grow,” Barron said. “Our customers expect the very best and many have been with us for a long time because that is what they get. This reflects our unwavering commitment to providing raw aerospace materials that meet the highest industry standards–and how we consistently fulfill that promise to our customers.”
As we continue to grow, customers will keep benefiting—with faster lead times, increased allocations, and enhanced service offerings.
