Helping Idaho Businesses Thrive in a Challenging Environment

Our E3 (economy - energy - environment) work with TechHelp created a positive impact of $5.7M in sales and $1.2M in cost savings which included $40K saved during our recent air compressor project. We’d have lost 30 jobs to China or Mexico if we hadn’t used E3 to improve our operations .” Nathan McMasters, President - DMP, Idaho Falls
