In addition to Industrial Consulting & Marketing, Inc. (ICM), Bertoni’s business sense also led him to establish two other successful enterprises. ICM is the mother company, and works out of the New Jersey location. The company provides fabrication services for large stone contractors. A second company is CNC Stone, LLC, a company for CNC stoneworking, which Bertoni operates in partnership with Maurizio D’Alessio. CNC Stone was started in 1998 in order to satisfy the local need for quality high-volume fabrication by means of CNC equipment. Keeping up with the latest tool and machinery technology has been essential to the successful operation of this aspect of the fabrication, said Bertoni. And thirdly, I&D Signature, LLC was developed in Xiamen, China with partner Dana Luo. This company has an agreement with ICM to assist with the fabrication of stone pieces for large-scale jobs. Two factories were contracted in China about four years ago.
According to Bertoni, I&D Signature has completed work for several casinos in Las Vegas. “A lot of times, we do jobs in China because the factory can handle the volume,” he said. “When it is very labor intensive, we do the work in China. Everything then comes through here so we can control the quality.” In regards to quality control, he even makes a point to read all of the architectural drawings for each project, no matter where it is being fabricated.
