Time to Work!

Let's help each other!  Let's jump back into continuous quality improvement together!  Quality and CI have been on hold long enough.  

I'll be relocating the Marnie Schmidt LLC office from Tampa FL to Michigan for the entire summer, Memorial Day through Labor Day, returning to my automotive quality roots and ready to WORK!  I'm ready to follow your safety protocols (and have completed the vaccination process).  So, let's get back to normal.  Let's roll up our sleeves and work side-by-side on the project of your choice.

To celebrate getting back to normal, I'm offering something special.  NO TRAVEL COSTS!  That's right.  If you're in the lower peninsula of the State of Michigan, you'll pay just a daily rate and I'll come to you FOR FREE (with no travel reimbursement)!  

Tell me, what do you need and let's make a plan?
