"I have enclosed for your information a copy of my report to EPRI on the examination of alternative methodologies for building combined energy models. Starting with a view favoring hierarchical systems as the most convenient organizing framework, I became, as you can see, a complete convert to the Brock-Cazalet-Nesbitt view of the world. It has been an education for me, and I thank you for it."

Brainpower and the Willingness to Use It.

Winners like Altos do not blindly resort to a cookbook, a corporate look and feel, the latest trendy management gimmick, a prefabricated solution looking for a problem, or a bevy of junior people working under the tutelage of a largely absent, overcommitted senior person. Winners like Altos put their most senior people to the task of solving problems for our clients, not relegating them to administrative duties in favor of untested or inexperienced people. Winners like Altos are not afraid to combine today's raw brainpower with yesterday's best in class solutions.
