ELM is running a bunch of ads for supervisors in Illinois.....did they get a contract or did heads just roll?

We keep hearing that a large gas company is unhappy up there. Not sure who is locating them though........ Maybe they (ELM) are just trying to raise the standard by purging old management.

I was wondering what was going on. It makes sense to me that ELM should make some BIG changes up top. I hear that they looking to lose many of their Qwest states in the next little while. Qwest has placed it all out to bid, and met with many of those who submitted numbers through out their network.

Rumor is they are picking up a large chunk of work from NICOR currently being done by USIC.

well....that would make sense. The rumor is that they are bidding all the Qwest States at one low price, or a higher single state price. I like the aggressive nature of it.....but I am not sure they are able to cash that check. There seems to be a lot of meeting with people not doing the current locating in Utah, AZ, CO, and WY.

Should be interesting to see how it all plays out. I am sure there are more out there who know more, but are unwilling to speak up.
