We have finally settled into our new facility! Having said that, due to new emerging business opportunities it appears we will outgrow this new facility by mid year. This is a great problem to have but will take much planning and help to fix. The aforementioned plan will at least include building several new, much larger, state-of-the-art facility that will give us room to grow. When it comes to building sites we are looking at several possibilities including moving north county, in neighboring counties, and am even scouting just across the border into Alabama. On top of this, we are also in the planning stages of expanding overseas with a brick-and-mortar calibration and testing facility to provide much-needed services in Southwest Asia. We are also adding over a dozen new sites all over the globe.
What is driving this tremendous growth, thanks for asking, it’s primarily due to our past successes and a willingness take on new opportunities to meet our customer needs. Some of our new emerging sectors are; emergency vehicle testing, medical equipment servicing, and FAA-level avionics certification of aircraft.
How will this impact the community we grow into, glad you asked that too, our prediction is that we will add as many as 20 high-paying positions within the next 4 to 5 years resulting in a total of over 35 permanent full-time positions not to mention the additional rotating staffing for overseas efforts!
I think you will agree this is all very exciting and with hard work and attention to detail we will get this right, and it must be done right. Lastly, we would be remiss if we didn’t express how thankful we are for our customers and both the partnerships and friendships we have established over the past years. Let’s look forward to a safe and prosperous 2024!
