A profoundly positive impact: a testimonial from a Director of Operations
Marvin Lee
Director of Operations,
Upper Darby
School District
“First Service’s presence during a critical period had a profoundly positive impact on our Transportation Department. Their Senior Consultant, David Staples brought a calm, steady energy that reassured drivers and assistants alike, helping stabilize the operation and lift morale when it was needed most.
Beyond that, First Services gave confidence and courage to emerging leadership, empowering them to design and implement new initiatives with clarity and purpose. Their recommendations were practical, thoughtful, and grounded in real-world best practices drawn from years of experience, many of which we were able to put into action to improve our daily operations.”
