Jeanine L. Slaughter, daughter of Iolans Jack and Beverly Franklin, has been named ERO Houstons Support Employee of the Year.
Slaughter is a contracting officers representative for ERO Houston, a Texas-based firm that oversees construction and development of detention centers.
In 2017, Slaughter helped with 23 separate short- and long-term projects and procurement contracts, according to an ERO press release.
She routinely displays a continuous pursuit of excellence, always giving 110 percent toward every assigned project and task, the press release read. She is results-driven and has an unparalleled record of superior performance and achievement; contributing greatly towards ERO Houstons mission, goals and values.
She was integral with logistical planning for a 300,000-square-foot, 1,000 bed detention facility valued at more than $550 million, the company said. She also aided in delivery of emergency fuel in the Houston area in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey last fall.
