Auer Precision Company, Inc. Awarded the Tier 1 Supplier of the Year Award for 2014 by Accelerate Diagnostics, Inc.
Mesa, Arizona (PRWEB) May 15, 2014 -- Auer Precision, Inc., a premier provider of contract manufacturing services, has been awarded the Accelerate Diagnostics Tier 1 Supplier of the Year Award for 2014. The announcement was made by Kurt Reinhardt, Head of Operations for Accelerate, and was celebrated by a hosted luncheon held on the Auer campus.
Auer was selected as a result of its work in the development of stamping and assembly technologies for production of consumable cassettes for Accelerate’s ID/AST system. Mr. Reinhardt described the substantial unmet medical need presented by infectious disease testing which currently takes days to direct therapy for very sick patients and the opportunity presented by substantially faster testing. Accelerate’s automated microscopy analysis technology promises to reduce the time to result for these critical tests from days to 5 hours or less.
"Auer Precision is a professional, quality-conscious and solutions-oriented organization," said Reinhardt, "They understand our needs and work diligently to meet our goals.” Darin McDaniel, Head of Manufacturing for Accelerate added, “Our supply chain is steadily improving and the time to consolidate is this year. We selected Auer based on their performance and ability to support our expected future growth.”
"Auer is both honored and humbled by the opportunity to work with Accelerate Diagnostics, a truly innovative organization that is a front runner in technology leadership," stated A. Brent Bollong, President of Auer Precision. "This award demonstrates the progress we have made towards establishing our place in Medical Device contract manufacturing and is a testament to our organization’s value proposition with regards to Tier 1 supply chain management.”
