Nelson listens! As a customer of TransWorks, I was fortunate enough to work with Nelson over this past year, as his team continued to develop and enhance a scheduling system for our department. During this time, I've been impressed by Nelson's attention to customer needs, his organizational skills, and his genuine approach to communications. As both a project manager and as our account manager, Nelson responded quickly to requests, set appropriate expectations, engaged senior management when appropriate, and always provided the follow through needed to close the loop on pending tasks. Nelson will be missed and his absence will certainly be felt as our efforts transition.
