PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
The beginning of a new year is always a time for reflection and refocusing.
MESA had a great year in 2000 and we are proud of our accomplishments. I’d
like to take a second to review some of the highlights.
- We achieved record revenues, experiencing a 20% growth over 1999.
- MESA became ISO 9002 certified in October 2000, becoming the first North
American full-line cathodic protection company to be certified.
- The expansion of our website with its comprehensive product catalog and a
Technical Section has created an often-used resource for our customers (and
sometimes our competitors).
But don’t get the idea that we’re satisfied. We’ve just finished a
strategic planning process and outlined our objectives for 2001. Foremost among
our goals is to maintain our position as the leader of service and quality in
the cathodic protection industry. Some of the key initiatives that we’re
undertaking this year include:
- Expansion of our production capacity. We are adding additional production
space and personnel to accommodate the increased requirements of our
customers.
- We are installing a new software program for our sales group that will
enhance our ability to monitor customer requirements and to communicate more
effectively.
- We are eliminating the Technical Section of our website and replacing it
with something even better. In the words of George W. Bush, "it’s
cool." Read more about our new CP Design Center elsewhere in this
newsletter.
We look forward to seeing you at CORROSION 2001 in Houston and updating you
about some of these activities. We’ll be there at Booth #1619, so please look
us up.
Occasionally we receive a request for previous newsletter articles. You’ll
see an Archive link on the left menu that will allow you to access any of our
past newsletters.
Thanks for your business and your support.
Terry F. May
President, MESA Products
