FAVORED FOR A REASON

Accountability, close client relationships, and a sense of urgency are core values for RKMC. The company treats stakeholders as family and works together on various levels. Adopting an organic approach that encourages partnership is a “win-win” for both parties. It promotes transparency, honesty, and teamwork. As a trusted advisor and partner to their clients, RKMC improves all aspects of operation.

WIDELY ACCREDITED AND INNOVATIVE

RKMC is a global leader in offshore manufacturing, with a reputation for innovation and quality. The international offsite manufacturing market is highly competitive, valued at $ 130,409 million in 2020 and predicted to rise at a CAGR of 5.9% to $235,476 million by 2030. RKMC’s facilities are ULISO 2015: 9001ISO 2015: 14001, and ISO 2018: 45001 certified and equipped with the latest technology. The company employs VDC (Virtual Design & Construction) to create projects with fewer change orders and greater efficiency. Its technology professionals collaborate with project teams to perform effective collision detection and predict disputes before they occur. This reduces project risks and allows RKMC to facilitate mass production and commercialization of modular solutions.

Today’s speed to market requires firms to adapt to constantly evolving technologies to design, build, integrate, deploy, and operate more sophisticated mission critical infrastructure than ever before. RKMC is focused on adopting offsite manufacturing processes combined with knowledge to meet issues in a constantly changing mission critical market. The company’s products and solutions are designed in collaboration with clients who use a library of reference designs. The products are then constructed off-site and integrated in RKMC’s quality-controlled manufacturing facility, deployed, and seamlessly integrated on-site.

THE BRAINS BEHIND THE INNOVATION 

Businesses are unable to perform optimally and thrive on their own. They require a smart strategy developed by a dedicated leader committed to excellence. John Marrinucci, President & Managing Partner of RKMC, is responsible for this crucial obligation. A former engineer of a US Navy nuclear submarine, he believes in empowering people. He is more than an executive; he mentors his leaders and employees to grow and perform at their highest potential. As a leader, he instills in his teams the values of respect for all people and their contributions equally, being well-trained, putting the team first, putting the mission first, transparency, working hard and playing hard. “I truly believe that my team is an extension of my family, and my ideal team is happy, dedicated, and hardworking,” says John. His people-centric leadership has helped his team be familiar and functional in their responsibilities, striving for excellence while learning and growing.  

He complements his tenure in the Navy, which set the highest standards of personal integrity, performance, and leadership for what he is. He has created a stress-free environment for his team, ensuring that team members are content, productive and have the opportunity to advance in their careers by meeting their personal goals. He believes when a team is respected and allowed to grow, they will perform at optimal levels that exceed all expectations.

OUTWEIGHING COVID-19

During the pandemic, John and his team’s operational capabilities were put to the ultimate test. Businesses across industries were unsure how to handle revenues and people, resulting in layoffs and unequal work demands. RKMC went the extra mile to protect and care for its employees. They pooled supplies, like sanitization products and masks to protect employees and their families. Furthermore, the company continued to work while much of the business world was on lockdown. Employees were offered flexible working arrangements, and those with particular family situations or pre-existing conditions were allowed to work outside of the office without restriction.

Another the team overcame was supply chain. RKMC focused on building strong relationships with vendors to find new ways to access essential resources. “Thanks to our great vendor relationships, which we have acquired through hard work and execution excellence,” John explains, “RKMC has evolved to be one of the top modular solutions providers.” RKMC’s workforce emphasizes the need to deliver the highest quality products despite the economy’s instability.

CARVING A NICHE IN THE CROWD

Since starting in 2015, RKMC has achieved great success. One of the team’s most significant accomplishments and differentiators is the development of ‘The Disruptor ™ 2000,’ which shatters industry metrics in blockchain cryptocurrency markets. “The ‘The Disruptor ™ 2000’ makes us the leader in modular cryptocurrency solutions,” asserts John with pride. RKMC started with a 140,000 sq. ft. facility and currently operates in a 280,000 sq. ft. facility. RKMC aims to expand its operational areas in the upcoming years and will introduce a second shift if required.

A NOTE OF ENLIGHTENMENT

“You learn more from the challenges than you do when things are going great.  I use a term for the wrestling with and experiencing the challenges regardless of the outcome as “scars”. Also, putting team before self trumps all things. If you have the right people and they can gel and work as a team, they are unstoppable.”
