Description of the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:

Electrical distribution is often an industry in which companies are hesitant to give away their "secrets." For this reason I am excited to have Kevin Reed as a regular contributor. A director of purchasing and operations for a relatively large distributor, he offers insights and advice in his columns that is unique to the magazine. The two I chose to enter both demonstrate a down-to-earth, yet thoughtful approach to providing information:

"That Time I Ran and Pipe & Wire Sale" offers a frank look at what happens when an "easy sale" becomes a major headache. "When Too Little Becomes Too Much" is a very timely look at a problem almost every electrical distributor is dealing with—the supply chain.
