By Mission Design & Automation
On February 12, 2025, at the FANUC ASI (Authorized System Integrator) Conference in Orlando, Florida, Mission Design & Automation was honored with the 2025 Exemplary Sales Award. FANUC America Corporation President & CEO Michael Cicco presented the award to Mission CEO Scot Lindemann, recognizing Mission as a trusted partner in delivering scalable automation solutions.
We are proud to be recognized for our team’s ability to deploy more than 50 robotic systems each year and our commitment to providing durable, high-value robotic solutions that support our customers’ long-term success.
Mission’s Commitment to Innovation, Trust, and Partnerships
We know that in the advanced manufacturing industry, our customers rely on us to help them reach their unique and challenging production goals. We could not do this without strong partnerships with our suppliers, and we’re so grateful to have the partnership we have with FANUC. Our team is always honored to be recognized for the work we do, and we’re proud of all we have accomplished together. We believe in these three core principles that power our success:
- Our Team: Creativity, collaboration, and dedication drive robotic solutions that support businesses today and adapt for the future.
- Customer Trust: We build strong partnerships by tackling tough problems together and continuously improving processes to create lasting value for our customers.
- Community & Partners: The support of our community and industry partners, like FANUC, help us push the boundaries of what’s possible in automation.
Strengthening Industry Solutions with FANUC
Our partnership with FANUC goes beyond business transactions. Together, we use robots to solve complex manufacturing challenges across an array of industries, including automotive, medical device, food and beverage, aerospace and defense, consumer goods, e-commerce, and more. We team up to understand end-user needs and goals and work together to develop the best solution for their operations.
We’ve had the privilege of showcasing our work in FANUC’s ASI booth at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) in 2022 and 2024. These collaborations demonstrate our shared vision for the future of automation.
Scot Lindemann is also one of a select few to have received FANUC’s President’s Circle Award. This exclusive honor is granted to individuals that have showcased a commitment to robotic automation, leadership, and industry contributions that have led to record-breaking sales and considerable industry growth in the robotic sector.
Additionally, Mission stands among the fewer than 5% of U.S. automation integrators that are FANUC Certified Service Providers (CSP). This certification allows us to provide FANUC-level service, training, and support, fully covered under customers’ FANUC warranty.
Looking Ahead: A Continued Partnership
The Mission Design & Automation team is honored to once again receive the Exemplary Sales Award from FANUC—a recognition we’ve earned in 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, and 2023. As we move forward, Mission remains focused on pushing the boundaries of automation, delivering scalable solutions, and continuing to employ the power of partnership with FANUC to support the evolving needs of our customers.
