I’ve worked with Addamson on several different builds over the years. His project management skills are some of the best of those I’ve worked with. The scope of the builds were always on-plan, organized, and timely. Scope-creep was kept to a minimum, with budgets and deadlines met in an exceptionally efficient fashion. While not a formally-trained engineer, the technical expertise he brings from the operations side has lended itself hugely on the engineering front, especially when it came to the practical application side of the builds post-design. This made for an extremely seamless transition with minimal hiccups when it came to install. I would highly recommend Addamson in the areas of industrial engineering, project management, and process-development.

Addamson has been a staunch ally of our Process Development at Cave City Mfg. His practical observations and critical input reveal his considerable understanding of the larger operation and his desire to improve everything from the sales presentation to product delivery. For years I've valued his focus on honing the precision of specific systems, establishing standards, and eliminating snags as he delivers the best products and services possible. His Professional approach and focus on Quality and Consistency are what allow me to wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to add a solid point-man to their Team.
