Speaking of the partnership, CEO of Hanson Simon Willis said, “Like APSE, we strive for high ethical standards in all of our activities; taking our social and environmental responsibilities very seriously. We have decades of experience in helping our customers generate efficiencies and are very much looking forward to working closely with APSE’s member authorities, providing cost-effective solutions.”

This, as well as their top-level customer service, means they will be a huge asset to our members.”
