There is no “i” in
Roger Camp-
bell.
He’s all about his
team. Chances are
he’s always been
that way.
Even a basic knowl-
edge of Campbell’s
background re-
veals a consistent
commitment to a distinct theme: group syn-
ergy.
Campbell, MPW’s corporate training and em-
ployee development manager, began his col-
lege education in 1961 at Muskingum College.
Nine years later he had attained his Bachelors
of Science from Muskingum and his Master’s
Degree from Bowling Green State University.
While working toward those degrees Camp-
bell began a career in college athletics. For
13 years he had stints as a football coach and
in athletics departments at Ohio Wesleyan,
Bowling Green, Grove City College, Westmin-
ster College and Earlham College.
Now, 40 years after the publication of Woody
Hayes’ book You Win With People, Campbell’s
similar message is as valid to the industrial
cleaning trade as it is to building a football
program: “You can’t accomplish anything
without good people. Machines are of little
value without good people to run them and
maintain them.”
Through its training program, MPW has made
its group of good people even better.
Unquestionably, a safer, more efficient work-
force has created a tangible business advantage
for MPW.
“It’s vital to make sure our training is better
than our competitors’,” he says. “We want to
set the pace in the industry.”
Bottom line: Campbell and the training team
have become not only an educational resource,
but a commercial asset.
The story of how this was accomplished goes
back four years to when Campbell, too ener-
getic and goal oriented to settle for retirement,
joined MPW after a 31-year stint at Worthing-
ton Industries.
When he started, he was one of only two MPW
employees whose sole focus was training. Now
Campbell’s group includes Corporate Trainer
and Confined Space Rescue Team Director
Jason Painter and Operations Trainers Dave
Taylor, Dennis Maxwell, Jerry Binkley (Rock-
port, In) and Adam Pearl (Pittsburgh). The
group is supported by Event Planner Haley
Black.
Five minutes in the Training Room with
Campbell or any of MPW’s other training
managers is all it takes to realize their con-
siderable talent in the areas of teaching and
motivation. This is a main reason the training
group is such an invaluable asset.
“I’m extremely proud of my team,” Campbell
says. “They’re very tuned in to wanting to help

NORMAL, Ill. — MPW’s Facility Manage-
ment Division has been awarded a two-year
contract from Mitsubishi Motors which will
result in nearly 40 additional jobs.
MPW will provide technical paint clean-
ing services and support for Mitsubishi’s
total waste management and environmental
processes.
The contract is the result of over a year of
work from Director of Business Development
Steve McKenney and Account Manager Ryan
Raper, who both had previous relationships
at Mitsubishi.
Other companies that were contending for
Mitsubishi’s business included Team Indus-
trial and Voith Industrial Services.
Raper and McKenney added key members
to MPW’s team from Mitsubishi’s previous
facilities partner. This was an important step
in gaining the contract ahead of competitors.
MPW’s competitive pricing and its focus on
corporate relationships and support were
also vital factors in completing the deal, ac-
cording to Raper.
Raper said McKenney, Facility Support
Controller Shane DeFazio, Regional Opera-
tions Manager Dewayne Barnett, Supervisors
Warnie Honsman and Antonio De La Cruz
and Office Administrator Elizabeth Meyers
all played essential roles in completing the
agreement.
“It was the best launch I have been a part of
or heard of in regard to customer satisfac-
tion, cost to our customer and profitability to
MPW,” said Raper.
Raper worked for Voith from 1993 to 2012,
including 13 years at the Mitsubishi facility.
He was eventually promoted to facility man-
ager. In 2006 he helped launch several ac-
counts with Ford Motor Company including
Cleveland Engine Plant 1, Cleveland Engine
Plant 2, Cleveland Castings, Ford R&E in
Dearborn Mich., and Chicago Assembly. In
2012 he left Voith and went to work for URS,
providing full-service facility maintenance
for Caterpillar’s Engine Testing Facility.
The contract includes a one-year extension if
mutually accepted by Mitsubishi and MPW.

ment team, go to http://www.mpwservices.

Training Camp Continued from page 1...
As recently as 2010, MPW’s course offerings were mostly
limited to Occupational Safety and Health Administra-
tion (OSHA) 10- and 30-hour certification classes.
To fulfill customer needs and increased regulations, the
training group now offers more than 40 specific courses
in the areas of Equipment Training, OSHA Training, Site
Specific Training, Leadership Development and Miscel-
laneous Training.
Although most MPW courses are intended for its own
employees, the training group has experience teaching
courses for outside businesses, including MPW custom-
ers such as AEP. Campbell notes that MPW is seeking an
increase in these types of opportunities.
Understandably, MPW’s overarching training focus is
safety.
It’s important to understand that when Campbell says
this, it’s not as if he’s repeating a corporate mandate from
a teaching manual. There is genuine sincerity that is im-
possible to imitate.
“Safety is more than a priority. It’s a core value.”
Perhaps it is this conviction that has made him an effec-
tive leader for the last half century or so.
There are several common traits among accomplished
leaders, one of which is flexibility. The trainers instill
this virtue into their classes.
“You have to be capable of giving training when people
need it,” says Campbell. “Adult learners will only learn if
it’s important to them.”
Campbell celebrated his 70th birthday in September. He
lives in Pleasantville with Sharon, his wife of 48 years.
They have a son, Andy, a daughter, Amy Hathaway, and
four grandchildren.

ment programs, go to www.mpwservices.com/working/

SMYRNA, Tenn. — MPW recently com-
pleted a six-week deep-clean project at
Nissan’s new Paint System 5 building that
marked a seamless connection between the
Facility Management and Industrial Clean-
ing groups.
The assignment included paint-process
equipment and building-structure deep
cleaning requiring the use of multiple aer-
ial man lifts, high-pressure water blasting
equipment and an industrial vacuum truck.
MPW was awarded the contract due to
competitive pricing, proven ability to pro-
vide quality service and a good relationship
with Nissan resulting from past projects,
including a five-month deep-clean in 2012.
Integral in the procurement and execution
of the project was Dewayne Barnett, who
is a Regional Manager for MPW’s Facility
Management Division.
Barnett credited Craig Love and Chip
Dykeman with much of the Nissan ven-
ture’s success.
Love was the project manager and was
acting in his first assignment with MPW.
Dykeman is a business development man-
ager for the Facility Management team who
was responsible for calling on Nissan and
administering the contract-quote process.
Other MPW Facility Management em-
ployees who played key roles in the proj-
ect were Mark Durbridge (Canada), Sean
Walp (business development), Scott Stew-
art (projects), Mary Patterson (supervisor),
Matt Walter (operations manager) and
Stewart Buckett (safety manager). ICG em-
ployees were Bud Lowery (operations man-
ager) and John Garrett (supervisor).
MPW continues to receive contracts for
other project work at Nissan with the end
goal of securing ongoing services in the
near future.

MPW Gives “Heart-Warming” Support
Several members of MPW Butler participated in the 2013 AK
Steel Heart Walk in October. Dan Johnston, Pittsburgh Branch
Manager, Jason Toogood, Health and Safety Supervisor, along
with several others, family and friends, took time out of their
busy schedules to help raise awareness and funds to combat the
#1 and #3 killers in America, heart disease and stroke.
Designed to promote physical activity and heart-healthy living,
the Heart Walk creates an environment that’s fun and reward-
ing for the entire family.
This year, more than 1 million walkers will participate in nearly
350 events.

its social network, be

November is Peanut Butter Lovers Month! Try a little peanut butter on your next Hamburger. You will be pleasantly surprised! There is no “i” in Roger Camp- bell. He’s all about his team. Chances are he’s always been that way. Even a basic knowl- edge of Campbell’s background re- veals a consistent commitment to a distinct theme: group syn- ergy. Campbell, MPW’s corporate training and em- ployee development manager, began his col- lege education in 1961 at Muskingum College. Nine years later he had attained his Bachelors of Science from Muskingum and his Master’s Degree from Bowling Green State University. While working toward those degrees Camp- bell began a career in college athletics. For 13 years he had stints as a football coach and in athletics departments at Ohio Wesleyan, Bowling Green, Grove City College, Westmin- ster College and Earlham College. Now, 40 years after the publication of Woody Hayes’ book You Win With People, Campbell’s similar message is as valid to the industrial cleaning trade as it is to building a football program: “You can’t accomplish anything without good people. Machines are of little value without good people to run them and maintain them.” Through its training program, MPW has made its group of good people even better. Unquestionably, a safer, more efficient work- force has created a tangible business advantage for MPW. “It’s vital to make sure our training is better than our competitors’,” he says. “We want to set the pace in the industry.” Bottom line: Campbell and the training team have become not only an educational resource, but a commercial asset. The story of how this was accomplished goes back four years to when Campbell, too ener- getic and goal oriented to settle for retirement, joined MPW after a 31-year stint at Worthing- ton Industries. When he started, he was one of only two MPW employees whose sole focus was training. Now Campbell’s group includes Corporate Trainer and Confined Space Rescue Team Director Jason Painter and Operations Trainers Dave Taylor, Dennis Maxwell, Jerry Binkley (Rock- port, In) and Adam Pearl (Pittsburgh). The group is supported by Event Planner Haley Black. Five minutes in the Training Room with Campbell or any of MPW’s other training managers is all it takes to realize their con- siderable talent in the areas of teaching and motivation. This is a main reason the training group is such an invaluable asset. “I’m extremely proud of my team,” Campbell says. “They’re very tuned in to wanting to help

MPW will provide technical paint clean- ing services and support for Mitsubishi’s total waste management and environmental processes. The contract is the result of over a year of work from Director of Business Development Steve McKenney and Account Manager Ryan Raper, who both had previous relationships at Mitsubishi. Other companies that were contending for Mitsubishi’s business included Team Indus- trial and Voith Industrial Services. Raper and McKenney added key members to MPW’s team from Mitsubishi’s previous facilities partner. This was an important step in gaining the contract ahead of competitors. MPW’s competitive pricing and its focus on corporate relationships and support were also vital factors in completing the deal, ac- cording to Raper. Raper said McKenney, Facility Support Controller Shane DeFazio, Regional Opera- tions Manager Dewayne Barnett, Supervisors Warnie Honsman and Antonio De La Cruz and Office Administrator Elizabeth Meyers all played essential roles in completing the agreement. “It was the best launch I have been a part of or heard of in regard to customer satisfac- tion, cost to our customer and profitability to MPW,” said Raper. Raper worked for Voith from 1993 to 2012, including 13 years at the Mitsubishi facility. He was eventually promoted to facility man- ager. In 2006 he helped launch several ac- counts with Ford Motor Company including Cleveland Engine Plant 1, Cleveland Engine Plant 2, Cleveland Castings, Ford R&E in Dearborn Mich., and Chicago Assembly. In 2012 he left Voith and went to work for URS, providing full-service facility maintenance for Caterpillar’s Engine Testing Facility. The contract includes a one-year extension if mutually accepted by Mitsubishi and MPW. To learn more about MPW’s Facility Manage- ment team, go to http://www.mpwservices. com/facility.

As recently as 2010, MPW’s course offerings were mostly limited to Occupational Safety and Health Administra- tion (OSHA) 10- and 30-hour certification classes. To fulfill customer needs and increased regulations, the training group now offers more than 40 specific courses in the areas of Equipment Training, OSHA Training, Site Specific Training, Leadership Development and Miscel- laneous Training. Although most MPW courses are intended for its own employees, the training group has experience teaching courses for outside businesses, including MPW custom- ers such as AEP. Campbell notes that MPW is seeking an increase in these types of opportunities. Understandably, MPW’s overarching training focus is safety. It’s important to understand that when Campbell says this, it’s not as if he’s repeating a corporate mandate from a teaching manual. There is genuine sincerity that is im- possible to imitate. “Safety is more than a priority. It’s a core value.” Perhaps it is this conviction that has made him an effec- tive leader for the last half century or so. There are several common traits among accomplished leaders, one of which is flexibility. The trainers instill this virtue into their classes. “You have to be capable of giving training when people need it,” says Campbell. “Adult learners will only learn if it’s important to them.” Campbell celebrated his 70th birthday in September. He lives in Pleasantville with Sharon, his wife of 48 years. They have a son, Andy, a daughter, Amy Hathaway, and four grandchildren.

SMYRNA, Tenn. — MPW recently com- pleted a six-week deep-clean project at Nissan’s new Paint System 5 building that marked a seamless connection between the Facility Management and Industrial Clean- ing groups. The assignment included paint-process equipment and building-structure deep cleaning requiring the use of multiple aer- ial man lifts, high-pressure water blasting equipment and an industrial vacuum truck. MPW was awarded the contract due to competitive pricing, proven ability to pro- vide quality service and a good relationship with Nissan resulting from past projects, including a five-month deep-clean in 2012. Integral in the procurement and execution of the project was Dewayne Barnett, who is a Regional Manager for MPW’s Facility Management Division. Barnett credited Craig Love and Chip Dykeman with much of the Nissan ven- ture’s success. Love was the project manager and was acting in his first assignment with MPW. Dykeman is a business development man- ager for the Facility Management team who was responsible for calling on Nissan and administering the contract-quote process. Other MPW Facility Management em- ployees who played key roles in the proj- ect were Mark Durbridge (Canada), Sean Walp (business development), Scott Stew- art (projects), Mary Patterson (supervisor), Matt Walter (operations manager) and Stewart Buckett (safety manager). ICG em- ployees were Bud Lowery (operations man- ager) and John Garrett (supervisor). MPW continues to receive contracts for other project work at Nissan with the end goal of securing ongoing services in the near future. MPW’s Facility Management and Industrial Cleaning Groups connect for success on Nissan deep-cleaning project MPW Gives “Heart-Warming” Support Several members of MPW Butler participated in the 2013 AK Steel Heart Walk in October. Dan Johnston, Pittsburgh Branch Manager, Jason Toogood, Health and Safety Supervisor, along with several others, family and friends, took time out of their busy schedules to help raise awareness and funds to combat the #1 and #3 killers in America, heart disease and stroke. Designed to promote physical activity and heart-healthy living, the Heart Walk creates an environment that’s fun and reward- ing for the entire family. This year, more than 1 million walkers will participate in nearly 350 events. As MPW begins to build its social network, be sure to “like” and fol- low us on Facebook and LinkedIn.
