WESTCHESTER BUSINESS JOURNAL, March 25, 2002 - Quotes
Vice President & Owner of Belway Electric in Elmsford, said his $40 million electrical contracting company works on projects with companies as large as UBS Warburg. He said he uses Cavallaro's company to help with cost estimating and "as-built," showing the owner exactly what has been installed that is different from the plans. "We work with hundreds of electrical engineers and full-service engineering companies," Donnelly said. "I don't know any other that does all of the above."
Director of Technology, Greenburgh Central 7 School District
Cavallaro is as much a counselor as he is an engineer. He tells clients to think of electrical capacity when they are looking at space, especially companies thinking about growing. And as the energy industry continues to deregulate and electrical costs rise, he is helping clients find programs utilities might offer as incentives to help businesses reduce usage, and then help with the application process.
Current Solutions recently consulted on a project for the Greenburgh Central 7 School District that will provide Internet access for the entire district's 2,000 students. "They helped us with drawing and design," said Ron Velez, director of technology for the district. "They also served as experts in dealing with Con Edison and vendors who bid on the project." The town took out bonds to fund the $1.4 million project that will be completed by the end of September. Velez said the company was extremely helpful and patient with the bureaucratic process. Approval from the state Education Department took eight months. "They were just so helpful in getting us organized and explaining the electrical side of the district," said Velez of the company.
Verizon Wireless, Director of Facilities
"Over the past 2 years, Verizon Wireless has utilized the quality services and expertise of Current Solutions to engineer and oversee our major main electrical system upgrades at our corporate headquarters facility.

Their personal attention to each detail of each project is recognized as being of the highest quality as well as their expertise and wealth of knowledge being of the highest caliber. I highly recommend their engineering services and will gladly continue to utilize them for all future projects."
Warner Power, Inc., President & CEO "Current Solutions' forensic analysis and related consulting services have benefited Warner Power considerably in the past year. Through their in-depth analysis and professional report and on-site presentation to one of our major customers, we were able to realize a substantial annual cost reduction by eliminating the need to replace electrical equipment produced by our company when certain "failures" were deemed to be the fault of the specifications produced by that customer. A renewed positive supplier-customer relationship was the ultimate benefit to our company."
Savvy Networks, CEO
"I am delighted with the design and consulting work Current Solutions provided for Savvy's critical power infrastructure upgrade project. The project touched every aspect of our power plant and included the replacement of all critical components used to power the Savvy Data Center. By the conclusion of the project, Savvy installed new transfer switching gear, main breaker panels, UPS infrastructure, power distribution units and diesel generator power. Mark's team at Current Solutions helped assure that we were well informed of our options."
"Through their diligent audit, they discovered things about our facility that the landlord didn't even know. Their recommendations helped us decide on an upgrade. These critical upgrades have reassured our clients of Savvy's commitment to their operational assurance and uptime. Just as importantly, the upgrades will support the forecasted growth of our business. Our thanks go out to Mark, Juliet and the Current Solutions team for all their expert help."
