Why We Are Trusted
"As a supplier, it is my distinct honor to write this letter to you on behalf of Stacey Burden.
Stacey improved our operations which strategically positioned us to be an approved Class 1 supplier. With Mr. Burden's knowledge of the supply chain we were able to become a top tier supplier. His understanding of being able to put suppliers in a position to be successful greatly increased our service level to our customers. It gave us the ability to ramp up with material and manpower for meeting increase requirements without any delivery or quality issues. In addition, Stacey helped us solve engineering and tooling constraints and excessive material lead times, etc.
Working with suppliers is a lost art, which Mr. Burden possess. His views on supply chain management are to consider the supplier as a partner and it is a relationship. Don't be mistaken, Mr. Burden was very demanding and challenged us on price points. But at the end of the day he looked at suppliers for their overall best value, not just their overall price.
Mr. Burden's experience and knowledge would be well suited for any company."

"It is my pleasure to write a recommendation on behalf of Mr. Stacey Burden. I first became acquainted with Stacey during a time when we were a newer company, struggling to meet the necessary requirements for which we had been contracted. Within 18 months under Stacey’s direct guidance, we identified critical gaps impacting our quote win rate and made key adjustments that led to securing major multi-year contracts. I credit Stacey's strong industry experience, mentoring, and perseverance with our success. We would not be successful in our current situation without Stacey's significant influence.
In addition to the help that he offered our company; Stacey has always been available for individual help and mentoring. Many times, I have called simply to ask his opinion on a matter of business. There has never been a time where I felt as though he was not attentive or genuine in his response. For that I will always be grateful, as it has helped me tremendously in my growth as an individual and professional.
It would be my pleasure to recommend Mr. Burden. He is a consummate, genuine professional, and will be someone who will make any business, organization, or individual achieve greatness."
