 "We were very happy with the ControlSoft consultant's visit to our site. The power generation control consultant was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I think we got the most of the control room tuning. A few operators worked closely with the consulting engineer, and that is where they tied in the classroom training with practical skills onsite. The operators enjoyed working with him. I would like to see him come back sometime for more consultation. Overall, this was a very successful visit that we would recommend. Part of it also was ControlSoft's expertise and great customer service. Hope to work together again soon."
—Performance Engineer, AES
"I am also very confident that the ControlSoft consultant identified the source of our drum level control problem. I was very well pleased with the quality and depth of knowledge he brought to the issue. He and our staff were comfortable working together. Staff and I both agree with the conclusions and methods. I was not disappointed in what the ControlSoft consultant informally delivered at his exit presentation. Looking forward to working with ControlSoft again."
—Senior Engineer, NRG Energy
