Summary

Edward Batko, the driving force behind Logicraft Corporation, has set benchmarks in the contract manufacturing industry from his Buffalo Grove, Illinois base. Specializing in precision machining, injection-molded plastics, die casting, sheet metal, and bearings, his company is distinguished for its efficient, high-quality production. Notably, his innovative "Zero Defect Policy" has greatly enhanced customer satisfaction by significantly minimizing production errors.


After immigrating to the United States in 1981, Edward quickly completed his high school education in just two years. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from UIC within two and a half years. He later acquired an MBA from Loyola University in 1992, focusing on International Finance and MIS. His career commenced at BDLS, a CPA firm, where he excelled as a consultant, managing sales quotas and implementing complex accounting systems. By 1991, he had ascended to a General Manager position, overseeing five retail locations with a collective sales achievement of $15 million.

His aptitude for international project management flourished from 1992 to 1999 while working for Advanced Systems & Networks, where he cultivated essential customer bases for products like CRM and ERP systems and forged a significant alliance with PricewaterhouseCoopers. His strategic insight saw him joining PwC in 1999 as a Business Development Manager, handling projects worth over $40 million, overseeing project scopes, and aligning team expectations effectively.

In 2002, Edward's career scaled new heights at IBM as the Director of Business Development and International Strategic Alliances. He managed projects across multiple continents and pushed revenue thresholds by innovating business solutions that significantly outperformed set quotas. His leadership continued at Aggregate Alliance and subsequently at British Telecom, where he enhanced global strategic partnerships.

2008, Edward founded Logicraft Corporation, which quickly became known for its precision and efficiency in handling complex manufacturing challenges. Under his leadership, Logicraft has expanded its client base significantly across Europe and Asia, adeptly navigating intricate supply chain challenges to prevent production downtimes. His implementation of a stringent "Zero Defect Policy" has led to a landmark reduction in production errors, establishing new quality standards within the industry.

Beyond his corporate achievements, Edward Batko is a devoted family man. He has been married since 1987 and is a father of three.
