It has been my pleasure to work with Andy Bradtke for the last 2 years on numerous projects involving Custom Print Now and Steel City Systems Consulting. In his role of Director of Technology for Custom Print Now, Andy's ability to manage those projects, to cut to the heart of the matter and work with people were assets that helped me as a service provider for Custom Print Now to work more efficiently on my projects and deliver at an even higher level. Andy's experience, technical skills and insights provided a solid framework and a good synergy for our companies to work together and deliver outstanding solutions to Custom Print Now customers and for Steel City Systems Consulting to deliver the same thing to Custom Print Now.
