“In 2010 Ron Crews and I collaborated to start-up production for the national launch of a confectionary item. The challenges we had to overcome were mechanical, quality-based, political and timebound. Ron’s well-rounded knowledge of packaging materials and equipment applications, as well as his enthusiasm, tact and positive attitude, were critical to an on-time start-up."
"As an external consultant, Ron stepped-up to mediate issues between Plant Engineering, Vendor Technical Support and Research & Development. He balanced being candid with respect for everyone involved. This was an unexpected benefit of involving a 3rd party and something I will resource in future start-ups. From a technical perspective, Ron’s recommendations were well thought-out and his quality plan was methodical. From what I observed, Ron has the experience and attitude to be a significant contributor to any new product start-up or continuous improvement initiative.â€
