laser scanning equipment, capable of scanning origi-
nal parts and producing 3D Computer-Aided Design
(CAD) models in minutes instead of hours.
In order to properly operate these new acquisitions,
Lall says that the company needs a highly-skilled work-
force. It looks for people who have completed the basic
courses in operating machinery at school, then puts
them through five-year apprenticeship programs so
that they can be adequately trained on the latest tech-
nologies. QMS also believes in being a good corporate
citizen. Some of the local institutions it has sponsored
include the Couva Children’s Home, the Trinidad & To-
bago Taekwondo Team, the Suzuki Club of Trinidad &
Tobago, and the T & T United Way.
Lall believes that the future of QMS is very bright, and
this cutting edge, Caribbean company is not sitting
still. It continues to invest in its people and its machin-
ery in order to increase its production range and en-
hance the quality of its services, while simultaneously
seeking out new customers and industries in Trinidad
and Tobago.
