We would like to acknowledge the great support that Clark has given us here at CISPRI. Over the past couple of weeks we’ve had a major payroll glitch and Clark was very knowledgeable, patient, and assisted us as quickly as possible and as often as we called with our problems.  Clark was and has always been a pleasure to work with, even throughout the most complex issues that we may have.  We have had the good fortune to work with Clark numerous times over the last couple years and have always been very impressed with his professionalism and knowledge of the system. We look forward to working with Clark and Arctic IT in the future.
