“We’re extremely pleased that Bob, Melissa, and Sam have joined our team,” said Tom Mills, President of PaceControls. “These are all highly qualified, motivated people who will help us drive our growth through the end of this year, and into the future. Even with so much opportunity in the Northeast -- and in Pennsylvania in particular, with customer energy efficiency incentives phasing in January 2010 -- we will continue our hiring across the country, coupling this with our international expansion. We look forward to making more such announcements in the near future.”
