In September of 2007, Senergy Solutions was working with the VP of Operations of a company. After reviewing the solutions we have submitted, he wanted a couple of references. He spoke to two of our clients. To one client, he requested a reference in questionnaire format. After receiving the completed questionnaires, he decided to move forward with retrofitting his company's warehouse lighting fixtures. The following are the questions and answers verbatim:
