Typically different P&L's of a business do not operate out of the same place. Not a whole lot of cross functional work between the two so really no need to stay on the south if you find a better deal on land up north. If this facility of theirs is truly centrilift, it would be very unlikely they would want to build next door to GE AL since they are direct competitors and could monitor each others sites. Im sure there may be some legal issues coming from that as well.

Has anyone determined more of what will be going on at this site other than robotic motor manufacturing? Are they pulling resources from claremore to OKC?
