The Cleanroom Contracting division of Performance Contracting, Inc (PCI), one of the nation’s most respected cleanroom speciality contractors, has recently made many bold moves to expand its practice.
The latest is a key new hire to capitalise on next-level growth initiatives for the organisation.
In response to the increased demand and client need for speed-to-market response, James Reeks, Jr. was hired in a new position as Business Development Director for PCI’s expanding Cleanroom Contracting division in the New England and Mid-Atlantic Regions.
