"We appreciate the terrific job you and Portland Bolt did on getting this order processed and shipped. This was a high profile project for us and our customer and due to your efforts, this project was completed this past weekend. This type of project, with its unusual requirements and tight deliveries is very common for us. We strive to meet our customer’s most strenuous demands and having suppliers with the same commitment, makes us successful.

"My specialty is EMI Shielding and stainless steel is not a favorite material because of its poor conductivity but my customer wanted 316 when our standard was 304 wire in a gasket application. I googled the question and got your Blog.
Your blog was very helpful and explained their reason when the Raytheon engineer only knew it was specified and not why.
I simply wanted to say Thank you."

"Steven, I just called to give you an attaboy for what you did in getting us the anchor bolts for the job. We started placing concrete on August 11th, we finished last Thursday on the 15th of September. So we got them all in place and it looks like, hopefully, they are all in the right place. Anyway, thanks for stepping up on that. Appreciate it."

Often times, a recognition of one's efforts are quickly over-looked and taken for granted in the line of work we all do, but from this office and behalf our team, many thanks to you and your team to get this small but critical order built and out the door in an exceptional time frame.
