Some machine shop owners come into the industry late. Adam Verdon was born into it.
From shredding paper in the office as a toddler to operating machines as a teenager, Adam grew up at G.V. Industries, the precision machining company his father founded in 1978 after returning from Vietnam. Today, he’s not just leading the company, he’s reshaping it.
With a deep respect for GV’s history and a clear vision for its future, Adam set out to modernize the shop from the inside out. That meant more than swapping paper travelers for terminals or spreadsheets for software. It meant earning trust, building buy-in, and creating a culture where machinists and their ideas matter.
When the team embraced ProShop ERP, they didn’t just get a new system. They got visibility, clarity, and ownership. Tribal knowledge became shared knowledge. Workflow friction disappeared. And the change didn’t come through top-down mandates, it came from listening.
This episode is about more than digital transformation. It’s about what happens when the next generation takes the wheel and drives with both head and heart.
