Hydrovac Nation is proud to announce our COMPANY of the month for September 2019 is:
Badger Daylighting Corp
Phillip F Harris – Area Manager- NW Ohio & Michigan – www.badgerinc.com
Phillip Harris started with Badger in April 2009 and is currently in his 11th year as an Area Manager for Badger in Michigan; however, he spent 10 years prior as an Area Manager for Ohio Concrete Sawing and Drilling.
Of course, this Badger office, covering NW Ohio through the U.P. in Michigan, takes care of Utility locating on a regular basis. But, when asked about providing other services to make the entire project work, they are all hands-on deck. They like to be the only call the contractor must make and thankfully their large footprint makes all that possible.
We enjoy learning, developing and selling our processes at Badger Daylighting Corp. I started with 1 local truck and WE have grown the area to over 40 units. THE PROCESS + THE PEOPLE is what works and our company motto is, “Best trucks, Best operators”.
Customer service is first when our clients depend on us to keep other people alive and well; we live in a day and age of “me first”, but when we (Badger) overextend ourselves to satisfy the customer, we all win. That keeps our customers happy and our operators working. Our product is safety, we sell safety. The term “daylighting” refers to exposing potentially hazardous utilities safely and efficiently. So, our name itself indicates what we do. And as of today, Badger does it better than anyone.
Shout out to our Regional Manager, Ops managers, our BD people, Ops support as well as all our Operators and Apprentices- they make the engine run, we’d be lost without them, AND, the first operator I hired 10 year ago- he’s stuck with us through thick and thin, (and most Hydrovac Nation members know who he is.
“Do the right things, for the right reasons……ALWAYS.” – Phillip Harris
Congratulations to everyone at Badger Daylighting Inc, NW Ohio & Michigan!
