Steve Kath, president: 

How’s Business? [Revenues in 2011] went up about 5 percent from the year before.

Biggest Challenge: Finding and training qualified sales professionals.

A Recent Win: Cutting expenses by process improvements and educating employees to be more efficient.

What’s Coming Up? We will be looking to improve our computer software and our building auditing process with new technology that will allow us to generate more proposals in a shorter period of time.

Proudest Moment: On March 12, 2012, when we reached our 20th anniversary.
