Thanks, Lee E.! I didn’t realize yesterday was your last day. It’s been a pleasure working with you—thank you for all your efforts on our two proposals. You ROCK, Lee!!!
Elisca S. has done an outstanding job, particularly with one of our toughest programs on the CEO’s watchlist. She’s a top planner, trusted to oversee training and provide backup support. Her contributions have helped several programs get back on track—she’s a credit to SMA’s excellence!
We’d be lost without Mike D.’s skillset and stellar performance. He went above and beyond to help our team succeed, truly embodying teamwork. If I could choose one person for my team in the future, it’s Mike. Thanks to SMA for sending him our way!

Chris J., thanks for the excellent proposal development training and your flexibility. I really appreciate your approach—the group felt comfortable, and the impromptu topics made the new knowledge real for us. Great work, and thanks again!
During our Technical Volume Red Team last Friday, we received excellent feedback. Lee E. was a tremendous asset, working with me over the weekend to revise graphics and reapply formatting styles, producing a clean baseline document.
The IMS section of the PMR is a great example of our improvement, thanks to the thought leadership and attention to detail from Chelley H. and Bryan A. During the PMR hot wash, the team received praise, but it’s their hard work that made it all possible.
Eleni T. showed exceptional commitment this past month, supporting the program through numerous BCRs and software issues. She worked long days, took minimal time off, and upon her return, quickly jumped back in to ensure timely completion of all customer deliverables.
In her year here, Liz C. has earned respect for her hard work, diligence, and positive personality. She consistently delivers with little supervision, helps out when needed, and keeps things moving in proposal management, even amidst increased workload and attrition.
During COVID-19, the proposal team successfully managed a complex, multi-business unit bid remotely under tight deadlines. They delivered a high-quality proposal on time and within budget. Special thanks to Jolyne T. for her production & graphics support!
