It drug on for a long time and Aaron rebid it several times as we went through headache after headache with the engineers. I feel he went above and beyond to help us get this project on track. It took a lot of correspondence back & forth to get everything dialed in & Aaron was very helpful through all of it. The lead time from finally getting you approved drawings to us receiving the material was much less than we expected. Also, I appreciate the time Aaron took when I visited to show me the material and provide a tour of the facility to see how it all works. Thanks again for the great service." CHARLIE PISCOPO, V.P.
