Testimonials

JWA has benefitted collaborating with SCI in many ways: designs have helped us get business by utilizing the skills of the designers to reflect the needs and in the time frame of our customers. SCI has been responsive to our input regarding products and the needs of our customers. (The design of the Pilot mobile booth, and mobile folding booth are examples). Anyone in the furniture business understands problems can occur, but we have found SCI has also been responsive in the remediation/repair/replacement in issues that may have arisen. It has also been helpful that SCI has been flexible when delivery dates change, and in helping us deal with those common occurrences. Perhaps most importantly, SCI seems to be one of those rare companies that appreciate our efforts and the relationship we have formed over the years.

Working with SCI has been an absolute pleasure. Since their inception into the K-12 market they have made a positive impact on students, clients and myself. My clients are extremely happy that their cafeterias are now “Hot Spots” for students. The entire process is efficient from initial renderings to installation.

Your continued support of the brand is unparalleled and incredibly appreciated. Working with you and your company makes doing business fun and exciting. Having a partner for our brand to ensure we hit our goals is valued.
