These are the organizations I am considering looking into for this project. I have personal knowledge of and experience with all of these companies.

Landis & Gyr - My grandfather worked with this company as a Vice President of Engineering for many years before starting his own business which worked solely with Landis & Gyr. I was an employee at this business for four years, and got intimate insight into how the company worked.

Delphi Electronics - My father works for this company and I have heard about it my whole life. I applied for an internship there this spring, and I plan to apply for full-time employment in the fall.

Marsh Supermarkets - This is my current employer. I have worked at Marsh for almost 2 years now and feel like this will most likely be my final choice for this project because I have the most knowledge about it and may be able to gain valuable information from my bosses there about this problem.
