Re: Advanced Performance
The Suter Company has been working closely with Advanced Performance for the past
two years and we are very pleased with the results we have achieved as we continue on
our Lean journey.
Larry and Jim possess outstanding people skills that allow them to quickly build trust
within a group of employees and effectively communicate their message. Classroom
learning has been quickly and effectively taken to the plant floor and results have been
apparent both visually through our 5-S efforts and also with performance improvements
shown by the measuring systems that have been implemented.
It is without hesitation that I give Advanced Performance my highest professional
recommendation.
Sincerely,
Tim Suter
