Team Comments
Jeff Marshall and the Clearwater Power team were intentional in every step of the website's build and design. The biggest noticeable impact was their desire to streamline processes for their members, thus reducing the need for in-person visits to their offices during the COVID-19 pandemic. This was accomplished through the implementation of online forms, replacing PDF flat files that once required applications to be mailed in or dropped off at their office. Jeff spearheaded an effort, working with team members across both Clearwater Power and Clearwater Propane to adjust internal processes, accommodating the changes that have enhanced the member experience while simultaneously streamlining internal operations.
