Team, During our November All-Employee meeting, I had the pleasure of reviewing our progress for the year with you. If you were not able to attend the meeting, a recording is available on the BlueCrest Net. As we covered in the meeting, we saw a continued acceleration in written business, which is 48% ahead of plan and 45% better than last year. That performance yields a backlog at record levels of $119m, most of which is for 2022. Dennis P. LeStrange President & CEO, BlueCrest
Conversely, the global supply chain disruption continues to impede our normal flow of manufacturing, integration, and installation. However, the commitment and resilience of our teams is offsetting many of these challenges, and that internal spirit combined with our robust backlog and pipeline gives me confidence that our full year objectives are within sight. In other news, I am happy to introduce our new Recognition Program, focused around our ICARE key behaviors. For more thorough information on the program, please proceed to pages 6-7, or visit the recognition page on the BlueCrest Net to recognize a colleague today. Lastly–and in the spirit of innovation–I’d like to try something new this quarter by leaving you with a video message below. As we are always looking for ways to improve our communications, I hope you find this method to be a fun change of pace. If it works well, we’ll look at imbedding more videos in the newsletter in the future. Holiday Video Message from Dennis Please click below to watch on Microsoft Stream.
