ABOUT
Advanced Tubular Technologies is a Michigan corporation founded by Michael B. Cone in the fall of 1993. The Advanced Tubular sub-name gives our purpose for existence: "Software Developers for the Tube Fabrication Industry."
NAME
-
Why was this name chosen?
- This means that our corporation will be always exploring and searching for better ways to solve problems and applications.
- We will be cutting-edge and exploratory in character.
- We will strive to be early testers and adopters of new technology
Advanced
While some companies choose to use the paradigm of staying behind the cutting-edge for safety, I prefer to promote a corporate character of advancement and change.
Tubular
It was my desire to create a name that clearly reflected the corporation's purpose. Vague names were rejected because they did not immediately associate the company with the concept of "tubing."
Technologies
"Technology" is defined by Merriam-Webster as "the practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area." Our knowledge set at Advanced Tubular Technologies is a very specific set of knowledge dedicated to tube fabricators. We want to bring our special knowledge set to make a change specifically for tube fabricators.
Many comment that we are in a niche market with a niche set of knowledge. Yes - We are very narrow in our focus. This enables us to better hone our skills in providing high-tech solutions to the industry.
