Broadening our network of contacts through active participation in SMTA has better enabled us to solve problems and offer solutions, both for customers and colleagues,” said Boguski.

“Membership also has expanded our horizons in terms of learning from colleagues more knowledgeable than us, and applying that knowledge for the benefit of our customers,” continued Boguski. “Cross-pollination of technical know-how is a good thing!
