"Brigitte has been very professional in her work with us at PTI Group. Brigitte was able to quickly grasp what we wanted to accomplish and had some great ideas on how to achieve our goals. She has a wide variety of implementation scenarios in her background that she could draw information from. The demo that she put together with not a lot of preparation time was very well received. It generated a lot of interest in our using JDE for preventive maintenance. I highly recommend Brigitte for any EAM project."

"I brought in Klee Associates' consultants to carry out a training assessment exercise for my user community. During the interviews conducted as part of the training assessment work, I found out that the members of the Klee team had very in depth knowledge of JD Edwards modules and were very proactive in identifying our issues and providing recommendations to resolving them.

Based on the training assessment, I have engaged one of the members of the team to work with the Human Resources/Payroll and Finance functions to resolve open issues that has plagued the company since the Go-Live over a year ago.

The consultant has successfully resolved these issues and will be coming back in April to implement some additional functionality for these modules.

I definitely recommend to any organization with JDE consulting and training needs to engage Klee Associates consultants."

"Eriez Magnetics couldn't have had a more experienced and resourceful consultant, for the implementation of the MRP module, than Pat Martino. Given the unusual parameters in which we had to work, Pat devised a distinctive approach to executing MRP. As would be expected, this resulted in many modifications to standard practices. Pat was incredibly thorough in making sure that all of the bases were covered and that we understood which processes were being enhanced and the reasons for it. Several very long days were put in as the deadline approached and Pat was tireless in his commitment and guidance. In the future, if Eriez needs consulting help we know exactly who we want it to be."

"Midway through implementation at a new site, it became apparent that Hampton Hydraulics needed to augment its relationship with our existing programming resources. I contacted Klee Associates based on a word of mouth referral. Klee, in turn, recommended Kathy Adams to fulfill our needs. Kathy has been absolutely fantastic, and in a short time, not only augmented, but completely supplanted our previous resources. Kathy has a broad JD Edwards functional consulting background with implementation and training experience. That experience really sets her apart from traditional RPG resources, and helps her bridge the gap between the code and desired functionality. She is very responsive, works quickly, provides excellent communication & feedback and returns quality, detail-oriented work. Less overall cost than our previous resource is the cherry on top. Needless to say, Kathy has become our resource of choice for all of Hampton's programming needs. I consider her a part of our extended team."

"One of Michael's most impressive attributes is his breadth of knowledge. Not only does he possess an in-depth knowledge of the many versions of EnterpriseOne, but he is equally proficient with Unix, NT, and AS/400 Operating Systems, as well as databases like Oracle and MS SQL. Michael's knowledge combined with his excellent problem solving skills allows him to quickly adapt to any situation and provide timely and accurate solutions. I strongly recommend Michael for any EnterpriseOne CNC related consulting."

"Kathy is unmatched to any JDE consultant we've ever had at Transpro. She is an absolute professional. The skill set she brings is great programming plus JDE knowledge. She is patient and thorough. From the point of view of our project - we would not have been able to do this in the time available without her. She is intuitive about our needs. She is also imaginative when problem solving - when we hit a wall, she had several different ideas to help us get past the issue. I'll be calling Klee Associates and JDEtips a lot to get Kathy back, along with other Klee consultants."

"Robinson Brick Company, a 124-year-old Colorado brick manufacturing company and long time JD Edwards' customer was in quick need of high-level Advanced Pricing consulting. We called upon JDEtips who immediately recommended we use Russ Bartunek, a Klee Associates, Senior Distribution Consultant and expert in the Advanced Pricing arena. Russ smoke-jumped into Robinson Brick Company with a couple of days notice and provided numerous tips, advanced knowledge, high level detailed expertise, and demonstrated product setup utilizing Robinson Brick's data. With Russ' guidance, Robinson Brick Company is currently in the process of implementing Advanced Pricing functionality to all of its 13 locations. Thank you for providing outstanding demonstrated product knowledge and immediate customer response."

"Pat has brought a lot of value to dj Orthopedics through his custom training sessions. He tailored his presentations to address our specific process issues and questions. We have especially found that Pat is great at matching up the true potential of JD Edwards with the real life business challenges that are not text book or white paper issues."

"There are two reasons we will continue to use your organization for supporting our JD Edwards systems. First, the depth and validity of your consultants' knowledge base is exceptional. We do not have the time or resources to function as a training ground for consultants exploring new areas. The consultants you have provided to us have been able to make an immediate impact on our projects. In addition, they have made sure that they left us self-sufficient in those areas. Second, the value provided by your organization strikes the right balance. Your rates are appropriately aligned but more importantly, your associates keep a firm understanding of our needs at the center of their work at all times. They have been excellent at advising us on several possible courses of action while helping us determine which direction most closely aligns with our abilities and system plans. We will not hesitate to contact your team for our future JD Edwards work."

Doug Dostal, Director of IT, Briggs Corporation
