NOVI, MI — Brasscraft Manufacturing Co. announced it has awarded the 2016 Robert M. Zell Award to David Hansen, Business Analyst, employee at its Novi headquarters.   The Zell award was created in honor of the company founder, Robert M. Zell, to recognize employees who epitomize and embrace Mr. Zell’s vision – to deliver the highest quality and innovative products to our customers.

“What makes this award so inspiring is that colleagues nominate colleagues, and colleagues select who receives the award.” said Rick Mejia, president, Brasscraft Manufacturing Co.

Hansen received multiple nominations from across the organization, not just from his Novi peers. They cited Dave’s spirit of commitment, his team work and how he helps drive results in ways that support the organization as some of the main reasons for nominating.
