Long may his hard work continue.”

Carl has been championing Jake with this task, he has produced spreadsheets to visually show where the whip is and the bottlenecks that are hindering the flow. This has been a great help in trying to unblock the flow to deliver on customer weekly commitments. It has at times taken him out of his comfort zone, but he has risen to the challenge, and is still supporting this on a daily basis.”
