Why Alliance Metrology
Alliance is Our Name. Partnership Defines Us.
We know that downtime isn't an option. That's why Alliance Metrology was founded with one mission: to keep your measurement systems running at their best.
Our founders, Jeff and Bob, spent decades working for CMM manufacturers and saw firsthand the challenges customers face when their machines go down. From long lead times to expensive service contracts and a lack of personal support, they believed there had to be a better way to support the customers using their equipment. This is how Alliance Metrology started.
Alliance Metrology was built on a simple promise: put customers first, every time.
Our Story
What started as industry veterans offering a more personal approach to CMM service has grown into a trusted partner for job shops and manufacturers across the country. Today, we continue to build on Jeff and Bob's vision by combining deep technical expertise with a hands-on, customer-first mindset.
We're proud to support companies that rely on their CMMs to maintain quality and meet demanding production schedules. The satisfaction we get from helping them stay accurate, compliant, and competitive keeps us motivated to always strive for the best customer experience possible.
We're also ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 certified, most recently recertified with no findings.
Our Approach
At Alliance Metrology, you're not just another service ticket. We get to know your equipment, your process, and your people. That means faster response times, tailored solutions, and the peace of mind that comes from having a partner who truly understands your operation.
Every calibration includes preventative maintenance to keep your machine running longer. For machines that need more than a standard check, we also offer full error map adjustment, correcting a machine's actual geometry across its full range of motion. It's a capability most independent shops can't offer. We can.
Every repair is backed by expert diagnosis and attention to detail. Every recommendation we make is focused on getting you back to production with minimal downtime.
What Sets Us Apart
Specialists in Zeiss, Numerex, and Other Major Brands: we know these machines inside and out.
Full Error Map Adjustment: not just standard calibration. Most independent shops can't offer this. We can.
ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 Certified: the same accreditation standard you'd expect from an OEM.
Fast, Flexible Service: short lead times that let us work around your schedule.
Nationwide Coverage: we serve all 50 states.
Personal Attention: direct access to experienced technicians, not a call center.
Customer-First Culture: built on honesty, fairness, and long-term relationships.
