Testimonial
for Consulting Services…
Terra
Nova Trusses…
We felt the time was right to have a person like Todd gi ve us an
independent assessment of our entire operation. We were struggling with
labor estimations on certain jobs, and Todd implemented the proper Time
Standards for us to follow, which would allow us to be more precise on
job costing.
We discussed and received advice on the implementation of a marketing
strategy, quality control, an incentive program, performance
appraisals, and the principles of lean manufacturing.
Todd has laid the foundation for our company to be a leader in our
industry and improve our bottom line. I would not hesitate to recommend
Todd to others in our field.

Testimonial
for Consulting Services…
Fabco Building Components...
Since
the
founding of FABCO in 1978, my family and
I have witnessed and been a
part of the evolution of the truss industry. One tends to develop the
attitude that you know what is best for your business since, after all,
you built it from the ground up. The reality is that you are operating
in your own busy little corner of the world.
Todd
brought to the
table a broader perspective, inviting us to question and compare our
procedures with what he has witnessed in the industry as a whole. This
led us to affirm some of our practices and change many others,
resulting in a significant improvement in productivity.
We are
excited to move
forward with the measurement and comparison of our productivity to the
labor standards provided by Todd. We feel that our relationship with
Todd has had a positive influence on our company. I would strongly
encourage others to make what we have found to be a wise investment.

Owners, Fabco Building Components, Watertown N.Y
