RE: Letter of Recommendation

To Whom it May Concern:

I would like to extend this letter of recommendation in respect to the services provided Eisenmann Corporation by Forest City Fire Protection. We are currently involved with the installation of a multi-million dollar painting facility for Mercedes Benze here at the Vance, Alabama plant. The scope for the fire protection work included wet and deluge systems, anti-freeze, and ancillary systems for all process equipment. The scope was budgeted at several million dollars. We contracted FCFP based on their experience and performance on other Eisenmann projects as well as the overall capabilities of the comany in general. Eisenmann has an elaborate qualification process for selection of every subcontractor of which FCFP has either met or exceeded all criteria as outlined under each requirement.

Their performance to date continues to live up to the high standards we set for our contractors. Their performance also has been used as a basis or model standard by which we judge other contractors. FCFP's performance has excelled in all categories, including customer contact, safety, adherence to schedule, calibre of supervision, quality of materials and workmanship, attention to detail and also of great importance, with price.

They have been most willing to perform extra work at reasonable pricing while continuing to make critical deadlines in a very fast-paced project. Their cooperation has been outstanding, so much so that they have integrated themselves into the MBUSI organization.

Most compelling is the depth of support from the entire company. All employees speak the same language of dedication, commitment and customer care. Based on the above we would highly recommend FCFP on any project requiring fire protection services.
