Message from David Meyers
ERG President and Founder

A group of 10 of us founded ERG in 1984. We're all still here, working together to serve our clients and to do work that we believe in. One of my goals in founding the company was to create an atmosphere of respect, a company where everyone at all levels of the organization would be treated with kindness and compassion. With each year, I'm more convinced that our commitment to this goal is what makes our success as a company possible.

How does this work? We look for people with similar goals, skills, and dedication to client service. We look for people who embrace our cooperative philosophy. In this atmosphere, people can develop, grow, and diversify their skills. They can participate on project teams that pull together to meet specific client needs. One key result of this philosophy is that we have very low turnover of staff or clients.

The atmosphere of respect that we apply internally is applied in equal measure to client relationships. We listen to and learn about our clients' goals. We develop and implement practical and cost-effective plans to meet those goals. And we make ourselves available and responsive to changing needs and priorities.

Each year, I work with our senior staff to contact every one of our clients to assess our job performance. The feedback that I receive during these assessments is nothing short of phenomenal. You might be interested in what our clients have to say about us:

The final product is, without question, one of the finest JASON curriculums in our history. The writing and editing are excellent, and the design is engaging, thoughtful, and attractive.
- Stephen M. Coan, Director of Educational Program Planning and Development, JASON Foundation for Education

I know you have been putting in tons of hours and are under a lot of pressure. You tend to complain so little that we forget to say thanks—Thank you!...We have accomplished a lot, and none of it has been easy.
- David Amlin, Chief, Engineering Section, Bureau of Automotive Repair, State of California

ERG's performance has consistently been outstanding and superior. The company's performance has been characterized by high technical quality, on-time and on-budget performance, dedication to client service, a friendly working style, and the willingness to "go the extra mile" when required by project contingencies.
- U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Small Business Contractor of the Year Award, prepared by EPA personnel and endorsed by 11 sponsors from throughout the Agency
