Industry Partner Spotlight: CD & Power

Friday, August 17, 2018


Please join us in welcoming CD & Power as a WECA Industry Partner! At CD & Power, power is more than just a part of their name. Power sits at the core of what they do every day as Northern California's largest, independent company selling and servicing diesel and gas generators and engines.
 
Consider a typical, early morning at CD & Power. Before the coffee begins to brew, calls ring in from contractors reporting power losses or concerns about generator performance. And by the way, the calls connect to a human voice. If you're calling from a construction site, the last thing you need is to wade through to that ninth recorded prompt that asks you to describe the nature of your generator problem.
 
With over thirty years of solving problems, customers keep returning to them because of an exceptional standard of service they have learned to expect:
 
  • CD & Power responds quickly. Their customer service line is open 24/7 all year long. Trained technicians are available around the clock to work through a problem over the phone or get on site promptly.
  • Their parts inventory is extensive. In most cases the part needed for both diesel and gas powered equipment is on hand. So too are rental generators to fill the gap.
  • The CD & Power technician sent out comes backed by men and women experienced in solving the most complex generator problems.
  • Their compliance department pays rigorous attention to the ever-changing spectrum of local, state and federal regulations governing generator operations.
 
Chuck Uischner, a gifted diesel mechanic, launched the business in 1985. From the get-go, word of Chuck's customer service spread, demand grew and so did the company. He surrounded himself with motivated people who wanted to grow with him. Chuck supported continuing education programs on the installation, maintenance, service, repair and safe operation of generators.
 
In 2006, CD & Power opened the Sacramento location to increase coverage and speed response times. In 2013, Chuck transitioned ownership of CD & Power to his daughter, Jill Collaro as President, and his son Donald Uischner as Vice President. Chuck's dedication to service and training exists in the very DNA of the family business. Day-to-day operations, training and management come under the leadership of Lisa Carter.  The culture of "family" that prevails there, along with the workforce's commitment to service and learning, makes the company a great place to work. That's what the Bay Area News Group annual survey confirms--ranking them as one of the best places to work in the San Francisco Bay Area...for the fourth consecutive year.
