The Idaho Falls company has grown its revenues in the past five years and has steadily added employees as well. DMP has been able to take advantage of the new Hire One Act in Idaho, which provides refundable tax credits of up to 6 percent of a worker’s salary for qualifying employers who create new positions. The state’s Workforce Development Training Fund has also been helpful.
DMP specializes in alloy component engineering and fabrication, with a strong customer base in the government and nuclear markets.
