RCM Technologies, Inc. today announced that as Washington officials debate the best approach to creating jobs and growing the economy, RCM Technologies and its Technical Publications Division is quietly doing just that. Recently, US Senator Sheldon Whitehouse stopped by RCM’s offices in Westerly, Rhode Island with executives from Pratt & Whitney and witnessed first hand the growth of the company and the dedication of its employees.

Senator Whitehouse said, “This is one of Rhode Island’s hidden gems. The talent runs so deep in places like this. They are not big companies, but they do what they do as well, or better than anyone else in the world.”

RCM Technologies is a leader in developing technical publications for the aerospace industry.  Using a staff of experienced technical writers and subject matter experts, the company brings a wealth of experience authoring technical manuals. This includes skilled technical illustrators that produce thousands of graphics. The Technical Publications division of RCMT has more than 150 people and is continuing to grow each month.

Pratt and Whitney representatives joined the tour with Senator Whitehouse and are a major reason for the growth of RCMT. P&W is the newest major client for RCMT and they are a key contractor for the company. Tom Clerkin, of Pratt and Whitney said, “We really needed resources, and not only did they step up to learn the new systems, but they invested capital in their infrastructure and brought new people at their own risk so that we could continue outsourcing to them.”  Clerkin added, “They’ve continued to produce a high quality product for us.”

RCMT CEO and President Rocco Campanelli said he valued the relationship with Pratt and Whitney and the trust they have placed in our company. “We recognize the importance of providing a quality product on time and on budget and look forward to working with them on additional projects.” said Campanelli. He also praised the hard work and dedication of his employees in Rhode Island, headed by Vice President Rick Wood
