Testimonials - Michael

“Meticulous, professional, and motivated are three words to describe Rick.

As Interim COO for United Premium Foods, Rick hired me to assist in a turnaround situation, overseeing a company that had been purchased out of bankruptcy and installing practices and procedures to ensure the fiscal health of the new entity. When I arrived, the production departments were being managed in a haphazard manner with effort being thrown at the newest crisis.

At his direction, one of my first tasks was to implement a system to cultivate an environment of consistency and repetition, allowing predictability in our raw material and cash flow needs.

He then focused on profitability of each customer to ensure our sales basis was sound, and finally onto selection, configuration and implementation of an ERP system. Rick was friendly and professional with all members of the organization, making a point of greeting each employee by name.”
