Good Morning Larry,
I wanted to send you a quick note to let you know what a good job the crew did on the IPB4 100 Meg upgrade project. The customer conducted time studies, both before and after the work was complete, and the results were better than expected. They were very pleased with the outcome of the project.
Please see the note below, and please pass this on to those involved.
Thanks,

Randy and the 100MB Team had the review this morning for finishing up the 3-187S (IPB4) 737TR 100MB Project.
Since the project is nearing completion April 29, we wanted to provide you with some feedback from Shop Mechanics, Team Leaders, Managers and Support Personnel.
We received many comments during the four phase cable installation and cutover processes about how great the Linder Team was at coordinating with the people, being considerate of manufacturing to disrupt processes as little as possible, really knowing what they are doing, following up on any issue with timely resolution, having great customer service skills. They really worked hard to meet our requirements.
Please thank the entire Linder Team for us and express our appreciation for getting our IPB4 737 Thrust Reverser 100MB project completed successfully.

As we move forward from this project your excellent performance will not be forgotten and you can be sure that we will continue to look for ways to continue our relationship with Linder and Associates. Please pass on my thanks to David and the rest of your team and let me know if there is anything that you need.

I am writing today to thank you and your company for the cooperation and assistance in the construction of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It is truly a beautiful complex that will serve the Catholic Church in southwest Kansas for many years to come.
Also, please convey my thanks especially to Russ Wedel, the jobsite foreman on this project. Russ was a very enjoyable person to work with and was helpful in explaining what was going on from the electrical side of the project. He certainly made me understand the project better and I appreciate all he did to make this job successful.
Perhaps, sometime in the future we will have the opportunity to work together again. Thanks again, and if you are out in the area, feel free to stop in for a visit.

To Whom it May Concern:
In the past few months, I have had the opportunity to observe Linder And Associates, Inc., as the electrical sub-contractor on a new high school Renwick USD 267 is building. As the superintendent of the district, I am responsible for all the construction within the district.
During my brief association with Linder, they were asked to expedite the installation of the electrical service and six light poles for our newly built football stadium at Andale. Unlike other sub-contractors that I have worked with, Linder was willing to go the "extra mile" and provide the materials, personnel, and leadership to get the job done according to our needs. They understood the political problem we were under and made every effort to help us complete the football stadium before the first home game of the 2000 football season.
I would highly recommend Linder And Associates to anyone, based on the high level of quality and service we at Renwick School District have experienced.
I would certainly make myself available to anyone interested in hiring Linder And Associates.
Sincerely,
Dr. Dan Peters
Superintendent of Schools

It was apparent that you spent many long hours and much effort in a very short amount of time to make it possible for us to host a home game.
I was impressed with the professionalism and leadership of your jobsite foreman, Dave Woley. You should be very proud of the way he and the other workers represented Linder and Associates.

RE: Policy 1X8 07 66 Jobsite Survey: Derby Aquatic Park, Mar 11, 2004
Dear Mr. Clark:
This is to confirm a jobsite safety survey conducted at the above referenced site. You accompanied me throughout this entire survey. We also met briefly with jobsite foreman, Chris Brewer. Individually, I met with the general contractor, Walz Harman Huffman Construction, Inc, construction superintendent, Jack Bollinger.
The comprehensiveness of your jobsite inspections is impressive indeed. It is through such thoroughness, I’m sure, that you breezed through a recent OSHA jobsite inspection at North High School’s jobsite without any citation! It was my privilege to walk through a complex jobsite with a journeyman electrician whose specific interest was employee safety. I found it quite educational, especially on some of the finer points of the construction industry standard for temporary wiring. Thanks, again!
Summary:
Mr. Clark, I appreciate you and your firm’s efforts to minimize your exposures to work place injuries. Even though all findings weren’t perfect on this job, your concern and passion for worker safety was clearly evidenced. As all items needing attention fall into a “minor” heading, no formal recommendations are submitted. I still see a very high standard on workplace safety at Linder & Associates and it is greatly appreciated.

Dear Mr. Clark:
Thank you for assisting me in directing me to two of your jobsites. This letter will serve to confirm these visits. Dave Woley assisted me at the new Andale High School project and Steve Tillery escorted me through the York International addition. Both site visits were conducted on August 23, 2001. The cooperation I received from both was greatly appreciated.
I was impressed with both jobsites! The attention to detail was evident at both. Evidence of periodic safety training was easy to spot, from the condition of the equipment and tools, to the organized material stockpiles. Your supervisors were even pointing out other contractor's safety violations to me during the walk-arounds. That showed me the safety consciousness or climate that exists on Linder & Associates jobsites! It was refreshing to see. Keep up the good work.
