Gilmore Services’ Vision for a Spectacular New Year

 

This New Year, Gilmore Services celebrates over 58 years of being trusted by thousands of organizations who choose to use our moving and storage facilities, our shredding services and our imaging and records management services. We have enjoyed this good fortune only because of our proud history and philosophy of commitment to the highest levels of integrity and customer service. That promise of trust, care and concern for each client's needs continues today as a cornerstone of our company's culture. As we enter 2014, we would like to share our vision for intensifying our client-focused services.

1. We will focus on “What Matters Most to Customers”

Gilmore Services is more than just a shredding, imaging, records management and moving company—we exist to help customers accomplish tasks that are essential to them. Your business generates paperwork on employees and clients that must be securely managed and when needed, destroyed. Your business is affected by privacy legislation and must take reasonable measures to protect against unauthorized access to confidential information. Gilmore Services provides the most secure, convenient, cost-effective, and environmentally sound methods available for managing and/or destroying confidential documents to safeguard private information, maintain legislation compliance, and avoid breach-of-security situations that will result in a negative image and publicity for your business. Our customers have very specific needs and deserve our focused attention in addressing their requests with excellence. We believe that a professional, honest, and straightforward approach is the key to every productive, beneficial, and long-term relationship. Our goal is to create engaged, loyal customers by satisfying their needs better than the alternatives. We will seek new insights about emerging customer needs and design service solutions based on what customers tell us is important to them.

2.We will continue to value, respect and encourage our staff to succeed and maintain its diversity

We find it important to work together in an atmosphere that nurtures teamwork, provides a positive environment and recognizes both team and individual achievements. We believe in the development of individuals’ talents and contribution to our company’s success, and we reward achievement fairly. To ensure our customers are valued and treated with respect, it is Gilmore Services’ policy that all employees provide outstanding customer service and assist patrons in accessing and obtaining the materials, information, and services they are seeking. Outstanding customer service means our staff possesses the necessary technical skills, passion for excellence, enthusiasm and initiative. We will continue to earn our customers’ trust by our performance and by open dialogue about what we can do together to grow the business.

3. We will continue working to raise efficiency in all operations

We will maintain a vigorous stance on strengthening our established best business practices and operations while fostering new operations. We will start with reducing our operating cost by leveraging the skills that we have built in our services and operations. This includes making improvements and implementing initiatives to maximize synergies across our existing business services. Some of these initiatives will impact results for this year, and will help to streamline operations and costs as we go forward. We will continue to transform our operations to ensure we are as efficient an organization as possible and provide our customers the most cost effective service available.

A closing word

In the New Year and beyond, these three elements will continue to evolve and provide us the tools to be successful and deliver even greater value to you, our customers. Combined with Gilmore’s industry leading services, we believe business and industry trends support our vision and create an environment for us all to be successful for many years to come. Gilmore Services would like to thank you for joining us the past 50 years, and we look forward to enjoying a very spectacular New Year with you!

Take good care of yourselves and your loved ones. Let's enjoy working and growing together in the New Year and for years to come!
