Customer did joint presentation with us at FRPA annual meeting in July ‘09
Testimonial from Commander Scott Mason, Miami CEU
“I just want to take this opportunity to say how much CEU Miami appreciates your efforts and the quality work you produce. Over the past year, the Asset Reviews completed by you and your team have been invaluable. In addition to identifying underutilized or excess property, the assemblage of real property information into the detailed package you produce has helped refine our files and make property information more accessible; allowing us to answer many customer and Congressional questions with ease. In addition, CEU undertook the Herculean effort of completing a Target Asset Review and Inventory Validation (TARIV) effort at over 200 sites in our AOR. Having already completed Asset Reviews for many sites allowed CEU to be the only CG unit to complete the validation effort by the 30 Sept deadline, even though we had more sites than most of the other units combined.
Thank you for all of your work and I look forwarded to continuing this enterprise.”
