First of all I would like to thank you for visiting our web site. I think our people did a great job putting it together.

When I arrived here at Becker Electrical, there were many positive things I saw right away that were very encouraging. This company began as a family-owned company in Kenosha, WI. As I myself come from a family of electricians, I saw from my experience and personal one-on-one meetings with employees that our staff is committed to making Becker Electrical Group an excellent employer in the construction industry, providing good jobs with staff training and certifications in many facets of the trade. As a result, Becker Electrical Group employs electricians, engineers and management that are constantly striving to ensure that our customers receive the best service in industrial and commercial design, electrical construction, service maintenance and technology support. In addition to a diverse and well-trained organization of electricians with a broad range of expertise, our people maintain rigorous industry certifications and are held to the highest standards of their field. Becker Electrical Group's commitment to exceptional project management means that our customers can depend on getting the right people with professional skills at the highest level available anywhere.

It is evident to me that over the past quarter century the seeds for our excellence in electrical construction have been sown, and as a result we have experienced growth within the company. Time and again, our standard has been high as we have partnered with many excellent companies, contractors and distributors to ensure that the job gets done right and on time. Spanning Wisconsin and Illinois, our portfolio of extensive projects has grown and long-standing relationships have been built. The fact that I knew of these before I joined the company is a testament to the importance of a good reputation in the construction trade for professionalism, efficiency and experience.

After personal review of past work accomplished and current projects, I am assured that our company will continue to deliver value to every project, regardless of size. My experience shows me over and over that the electrical construction industry is not a field of endeavor left to novices. Our commitment to quality workmanship, safety and accountability to our customers will continue to be factored into every bid, every facet of our job planning and preparation. As a result, I believe that our group of highly trained staff chose to work for Becker Electrical Group because of this commitment. Besides the excellent level of service provided to our customers, our solid safety record resulting in numerous awards is another reason that I chose to join this company.

Now that we are an employee-owned company, I understand that we have an individual as well as a corporate responsibility to exceed our customer's expectations and maintain our positive reputation in a competitive industry. We will continue to support various civic organizations in the community and we will continue to invest in the communities where we offer our services. This is a testament to our willingness to build and grow as a company.

I hope and expect that our customers, employees and peers from past, present and future will continue to see Becker Electrical Group the way I do, as a great company to partner with. I look forward to building upon the success of the company to date and I am committed to state-of-the-art construction built by competent, highly skilled, safety orientated manpower to meet the opportunities and challenges of the electrical industry as part of an owner/engineer/contractor team. Thanks again.

Sincerely,

John J. Wicks
