He is the right person to lead ACG Engineering into the future, given his command of our business and proven ability to drive results. His track record, depth of international experience, and familiarity with the industry will be highly beneficial in ACG’s growth. I also wish to thank, Richard Stedman, who has helped institutionalize many standard systems and processes across the ACG Engineering group.”
