BRING IT HOME

How I ended up at Boyce Technologies was by chance.

I entered into the world of manufacturing and New York City Transit with no previous background. Hired as the company's Quality Inspector, I learned from watching, asking questions, and listening to the people around me.

What I discovered was something truly unique, a company filled with individuals from all circumstances - the rags to riches millionaire, the immigrant story, former inmate, former cop, secret societies, pro-skater, ivy-leaguer, the soldier, the personal trainer, the missile defense computer programmer, and even a former adult entertainer. The more I learned, the more compelled I was to share a part of their story.

These photos were taken at the end of 2015, early 2016, at Boyce's 12-12 Assembly facility. They were taken as part of the company's New York City Transit, Public Address Customer Information Screens (PACIS) project. Over 100 electronic cabinets were designed and built, to serve as the communications backbone for the NYC subway information system, informing riders of the next train. The photos highlight the workers at Boyce, but also marks the largest, and most expensive project in the company's history. At the same time, the photos capture the last major project before the company's anticipated move into a new 100,000 square foot facility in Long Island City.

I have no doubt Boyce will continue to grow. Beyond New York, President Charles Boyce, repeatedly says he wants the company to take over the world. Yet, as the company transitions from a start-up, into a serious engineering and manufacturing company; will Boyce keep what made it such a unique and interesting place?
