The Heart of What We Do

From the early days onward, RCO has earned trust from the automotive industry’s leading brands. By the mid-1980s, we were a go-to partner for automotive engineering, prototyping, and product development services with particular expertise as one of the leading automotive seat manufacturers. As client needs grew, we expanded our capabilities and offerings. This led to important roles within the aerospace design industry as well as the defense industry.

 

Today, our employees find that RCO operates under the same values that Paul Sr. had when he started the company. These values eventually formed the basis for RCO's operating philosophy.  Emphasis is placed on teamwork and respect for our employees. These values, along with our never ending quest to provide our customers with excellent quality, service, and value will ensure that RCO Engineering, Inc. will be a competitive force well into the 21st Century.

Operating Philosophy

Eight Enduring Commitments

Respect

Recognizing that a company is only as strong as its people and that every member of the RCO team is important, proper respect will be given to each member.
