A Letter to Stakeholders |

Our Competitive World is Changing...

Bernie Benson, Chairman

As a long time participant in the bulk construction materials world, BMG Seltec has developed a deep respect for the challenges faced by this industry. Our business environment is unique in so many ways. Few industries are faced with products as perishable (asphalt or concrete), logistics as complicated, and down-time as costly.Few are as capital intensive or consolidating as rapidly. And, fewer still require as many physical locations, or as much information to be captured, for each dollar of product sold.
Until recently, you have had to manage these challenges without the benefit of effective information systems linked, in real time, to your production sites. After all, general purpose computing and networking products have only recently become sufficiently powerful and reliable to serve in the production

environment. Even more recent has been the availability of specially designed software products that satisfy your business needs and run on that general purpose equipment.
At BMG Seltec, our entire company is focused exclusively on this industry. We are leveraging the remarkably powerful and affordable technologies developed for general purpose applications by Microsoft, Intel, Crystal, Citrix and others, in order to deliver information and automation systems that fully support this industry's efforts to achieve new competitive levels of productivity and customer service.
BMG Seltec systems are tailored specifically to the demanding needs of aggregate, asphalt, and concrete producers. Our systems were designed and developed with the active involvement of four of the five largest producers in North America, as well as several forward looking mid-size companies to ensure effective products for any size producer.
We know you have a selection of vendors from which to choose. Nearly all of them produce quality products, capable of performing the functions for which they were designed. Most, however, operate as isolated silos of functionality with limited ability for two-way communications with your upstream operations, such as sales, customer service, and financial systems.
What differentiates BMG Seltec from other suppliers is our fundamental recognition of how technology is changing the competitive environment. Today you need complete solutions, systems that work together from sales to service to production to accounting - and back again. BMG Seltec has created a complete, effective, and integrated solution; all the way from the plant control systems to the front and back-end software that integrates with your accounting package (database management, sales automation, reporting, inventory management, transaction audit, customer service, local and central dispatching, etc.) - one continuous and seamless solution. By selecting BMG Seltec to implement the entire end-to-end solution, or simply to automate or upgrade a single site, you can rest assured that you have preserved an economical, risk free, path to continuous productivity improvements and competitiveness.
