Members Talk About Gaining Recognition . . .

“I can say from personal experience at Rockwell Collins that Performance Track motivates people to behave differently. There is a reputation to live up to. Recognition causes people to strive for greater achievements.”

Vicki Fisher, Enterprise ESH Manager
Rockwell Collins - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

“Performance Track will help us get the recognition we have earned.”

Plant Manager - Lincoln, Neb.

“Performance Track is a valuable partnership with EPA that goes beyond compliance. It transforms your environmental program into a point of pride, with the peace of mind that allows you to sleep at night.”

Environmental Manager
ATK Lake City Ammunition
Independence, Mo.
