“Management Plus award winners are the kinds of organizations that have what it takes to succeed in today’s challenging marketplace—a high degree of management excellence in all operational areas,” said Joseph P. Truncale, NAPL president and CEO. The annual NAPL Management Plus Program is sponsored by American Printer magazine, Compass Capital Partners, Ltd., and MAN Roland.
