DEC markets primarily in the XYZ metropolitan area of the South section of Michigan and the North section of Ohio. We are constantly facing new competitors entering our business market, competing for the same customers. Because of this, our commitment to quality has been forged to include a commitment of leadership in the industry. One of our main objectives is to become the "benchmark company," by which both our customers and our competitors judge performance. To reach that objective, we are constantly reviewing our competitors' strengths and weaknesses, as well as the leaders in our technology.
