Jason Rieger

Staff at Stores gave kudos to Heat & Frost Insulator Lead, Jason Rieger:

He is helpful with Stores and the insulation orders that he has to track between us and Fitchburg. He always communicates well with us, so we can easily track what is coming and going, and he quickly picks up his orders and/or communicates with us to aid in our processes. In addition, I was impressed in a conversation with him, how well he knew his “numbers.” Jason stated how many jobs they currently have open, currently work on, averages, etc. Definitely a sign he cares and is engaged in his tasks as well as the department’s success.
