card of 95%. I was glad to hear Leo and Matt were there to let you know
about the good news.The only way to improve, since you maximized your score
is to get the extra credit score with a cost reduction submission to
Matthew. Bermo has come a long way over the year since I have known
you.Well Done. keep up the good work."

"Polaris was implementing returnable steel crates for our snowmobiles.
The supplier selected for crate production had difficulty producing components
to support a preproduction build of 200 crates."
"I
was asked on a Friday to help get these components to support Tuesday
assembly at the crate manufacturer. This is 2 business days notice."
"I
challenged Bermo to provide 8 of the missing part numbers. These items were
moderately complex stampings and channels. Several of the Bermo items
needed additional engineering to be able to soft tool the parts."
"Bermo
rose to the challenge. Parts were engineered, produced and delivered in
time. This is a great example of a 'can do' attitude and basically flawless
execution."
"I
would like to extend my sincere appreciation to Bermo and all the people
there who made this happen."

"Now that the Chillicothe Plant has converted remaining orders to
Bermo, I would like to extend our gratitude for the support provided to
make the recent transition a success. Although there were challenges in the
process, the dedication and commitment provided by Bermo, your Tier Two,
and the rest of our supply base resulted in as smooth of a change-over as
could be planned. Please pass this message to your team at Bermo, thank
them for a job well done, and encourage them to keep up the good
work."
"PACCAR
would also like to specifically recognize Brady Bargman, Dave Sturm and
Steve Smith, and thank them for their exceptional support of this
project."
"Next
year will be a downturn for new truck demand, but we look forward to
growing our market share in an industry that continues to expand over the
course of a business cycle, with the stronger and more effective supply
base now in place."
