David is a manufacturing guru. He is an excellent controls engineer, understands how to drive a machine design project to successful completion, and is a joy to work with. I was lucky enough to get to partner with him on building the brains into a complex next-gen automated farming machine. During that time, I highly valued his ability to be energized about our work. I can guarantee his expertise with Automation Direct PLCs, drives, and networks. Out of all the engineers I’ve worked with he stands out for his dedication to and his investment in his work. I can easily recommend him for any manufacturing machine design or equipment acquisition project

David is hands down one of the best automation Engineers I have worked with. He has a no-nonsense, real-world approach, that produces results the first time. His skill in creating PLC-based systems, SCADA, and an overall well-rounded knowledge base has led to multiple successes on our projects together.
David is a very talented problem-solver and is an extremely valuable member of the Groviv team. His technical skills, diverse experience base, work ethic, creativity, and collaboration have been essential in overcoming challenges and developing several key automation systems for Groviv under very tight timelines and challenging circumstances.
David can always be counted on to plan and communicate well and to provide timely and critical insights which help to avoid problems or mitigate risks and greatly improve the likelihood of delivering reliable systems on schedule and within budget. In addition to very strong technical, communication, and project management skills, David also helps to make work fun and has the ability to create productive energy in the team which helps to elevate the team's collective performance.

David is an innovative, outside-the-box thinker that has been an excellent addition to the EnviroTech team. He helps the team grow every single day, providing advanced technical and next-generation solutions, coming with a ton of hands-on experience, has been the man to help come up with the ideas and execute his vision with precision. In addition to all of his main responsibilities as Maintenance Manager, overseeing our 100,000 sq ft manufacturing facilities' daily maintenance, David finds the time to take on specialty projects, putting in the extra hours and always delivering in a timely manner.
His leadership has been essential to turning our maintenance team around, that prior to David's arrival was inefficient and lacked depth. He has great knowledge of systems maintenance, manufacturing improvements, the Internet of Things, and optimized process control closed-loop systems. David is a large part of the future of EnviroTech and I look forward to what the future holds for Mr. Broadbent.
