Letter from Director of ResearchOctober 15, 2009 Dear Reader, As I wrote last year’s letter during our sesquicentennial year, I was thinking of what could we possibly do to match the adrenaline rush that resulted in a record setting year of making available to our customers 88 new catalog items. On October 11, 2008, my question was answered. FIRE!! APH produces hundreds of educational aides and these aids require tooling, for example, dies to cut the parts out of a pattern and molds to produce plastic parts. Fortunately, we have items manufactured in a variety of locations, but unfortunately one of the locations in Southern Indiana burnt to the ground. And so began the saga of the “Phoenix Project.” This could have been a catastrophe. However, the APH response gave real meaning to the old adage, “If given lemons, make lemonade!” Although the burden primarily fell on our Technical Research staff, our Operations Engineering staff, our Production staff, our Model Makers, and our Tactile Graphic project leaders, the workload of many other staff was also impacted by this disaster. The APH staff response was tremendous. For more detail, please read the report by Technical Research on page 330. We immediately took this as an opportunity to carefully review, and where appropriate, update or obsolete products. There were 72 individual items and 34 kits impacted by the fire. Today we have most of the products updated and back into production, and many are on the shelves and available for purchase. What was the impact of the fire on our ability to produce new catalog items for your utilization? Before the fire, we had estimated that if everything went just right we would produce 69 new catalog items. And, although not a new record, this represented an above average new product year. When the fire occurred, we were immediately concerned about the numbers of new products. However, staff were motivated by the challenge and took the attitude of “No Excuses.” As a result, you will find on page 341, a list of the 70 new catalog items. In conclusion, our sesquicentennial year may have been the record setting year for new catalog items; however, this year was a record setting year for that APH “can’t quit” attitude. As you read the report, the data can be a little cold. But this year we hope that you detect a little of the “fire” in the hearts of our amazing staff.
