Ups and downs

Ups to Voss Aerospace, a division of Voss Industries. Voss recently inked a six-year deal with Lockheed Martin to supply sheet metal and machined couplings and flanges for F-16 and F/A-22 fighter jets, along with the C-130J transport aircraft. The deal is a coup for Voss, which has worked with Lockheed Martin in smaller capacities for 17 years but never realized a contract of this magnitude.

Downs to the city of Cleveland. Director of Strategic Planning and former Chief Development Officer Tim Mueller’s exit underscores the troubles Mayor Jane Campbell’s administration continues to have when dealing with the local business community.

Ups to Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Ohio. Six Ohio schools are among the 18 in the Midwest that will receive a total of $5,000 in grants from the health care insurer to promote heart healthy habits among students. To determine the schools, Anthem worked with the Ohio Association of School Nurses to solicit grant application from school nurses.
