Disaster Reinforces Shop’s Value
Though a flood destroyed the in-plant’s equipment, it also helped demonstrate the crucial benefits the shop provides for the Pueblo City School District.
“They still weren’t keeping up with our customers’ demands,” Bocchietti declares.
And they charged more too. This experience proved that DSC produced work at 25-30 percent less cost than outside sources.
“It made everyone say, ‘wow, how do you do what you do?’ ” Bocchietti says.
In the end, the school superintendent concluded that DSC was “invaluable” to the school district. When the insurance money for the ruined equipment came in, the district used it to fund replacement equipment, and the in-plant was back in action.
