Celebrating 8 Years of BDP Service in 2009
Employee Dedication Award Winner
"I was glad to help my colleagues and
to make sure everything was on par with the upgrade."
Danny Aquino - BDP Edison, USA
.
Rick Boedewig, Director-BDP Edison-US appointed Danny Aquino-Ocean Export Logistics Coordinator as the primary designate to work with both BDP Corporate IT and the Edison colleagues to power down the Edison office for an electric wiring upgrade. These efforts included:
1. Power down all power strips
2. Unplug any equipment not plugged into a power strip
3. Power down network / system (Lee Conquest, BDP Philadelphia-US IT provided direction)
4. Power down mail machines
Rick commented that he learned very late in the afternoon that the building superintendent made a decision to place the office's electric wiring on its own transformer due to the increase of building tenants. As such, all power was to be cut by 6:00pm, less than four hours after notification.

"Danny led the effort to power down our entire office and take the precautions to protect our office and equipment from power surges" remarked Rick. "Danny then came in early this morning to power up the entire office, network, phones, and copiers. Through Danny’s efforts, we took the necessary precautions to protect our infrastructure while ensuring there was ZERO impact to operations and our customers."
Rick submitted the following words of thanks as a direct result of Danny's successful support:
Rick Boedewig, Director – BDP Edison, USHello Danny,I understand we are up and running, and I wanted to personally thank you for leading this effort for our office. Thanks for safely powering down the office last evening as well as coming in early to power us up.
