When ICS’s clients request projects and/or non-standard work to be performed by ICS, the variety and quantity of manufacturers and product types serviced by ICS results in an expansive range of requests from vague to complex engineering plans for outbound shipping configurations.  The associate will approach each project with curiosity, a desire to understand, and an ability to accurately determine the required deliverables by the client. The Integration associate simplifies the request for execution into easy-to-understand directives that will make the model come to life.
