In 2001, we introduced substantial enhancements to provide our customers with the information they require to better manage their supply chain. We were able to leverage our existing global information systems infrastructure to deliver this important functionality to our customers, cutting the time required to implement these enhanced services. In addition to the systems development work, our global staff was trained to effectively provide enhanced order management services and the delivery of these services was incorporated into our standard operating procedures. Our Internet based customer system, exp.o, was significantly enhanced to provide customers with up-to-date access to better manage their orders. Delivering on the promise of technology takes us back to the basics our global office network must be provided with an effective global system, the right processes and training and the ability to get the information to the customer when its needed. All of our technology initiatives demand these key elements, to be successful in supporting our goal to provide consistent, customized service delivered daily, and delivered globally.
