"As I continue to evolve and grow in the industry, change and challenges continue to present themselves with diverse projects.  Hunt continues to meet not only our customers needs, but potential future needs with our experience/diversity regarding different product lines, our project portfolio, and prefabrication experiences.  This coupled with the great people that work here and the relationships I’ve developed over the past 19 years keep me at Hunt Electric."

On a normal day, Ryan reviews projects for potential bidding and digs deeper to decide what to add to our bid board. Next, he works on take-offs of different systems and cross references them with their associated specs. This includes getting pricing from vendors and clarifying anything that might affect the price. That could mean a pre-bid walkthrough to verify routing of cabling, pathway, existing conditions, etc. From there, Ryan estimates the installation of the system as described on the drawings.

The next step is to work as a team to complete a project review of the scope and specifications so we can be competitive as possible. Then he writes the proposal, crosses his fingers, and hits submit!

After, Ryan follows up with the customers for results and feedback. If we are awarded the project, he completes an initial project setup for the project manager and reviews the scope with them so that they fully understand the project before construction begins.

"I think the best thing about our company culture is, even though Hunt is a bigger company no one in the company seems bigger than the company itself. Meaning from the people in the field and everyone in the office and warehouses they will all take the time to say "hi" and answer any questions or concerns, no matter who you are. It's a nice team atmosphere."

"During my career I’ve found it surprising how the field foreman are so welcoming and are great at explaining their work so someone who is not an electrician can understand.  They are also open to advice in regards to safety concerns I have had.  I feel like the best part though, is that we look out for one another at Hunt.  Most employees don’t feel the need to say “that’s not my job.”"
