The Company has completed the first of two expansion phases for its Utah facilities. The first phase entailed the creation of 17 additional office spaces for new (and expected) sales, management, and administrative personnel, and was completed in early March. The second phase—which entails the renovation of its warehouse bays to more efficiently receive, assemble, store, and ship product—began in early March, after being approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The latter phase entails merging the existing bays (which are currently separated by walls), and implementing inventory-management technologies to help expedite handling of product and provide enhanced supply chain insight for management. Dedicated areas for quality-assurance testing, fabrication, assembly, and employee-training are also planned. The Company expects the second phase to be completed by fall of 2014.

The Company also provided an updated employee-total of approximately 80, with the recent hiring due (primarily) to the addition of three sales representatives in the US, seven service technicians in the US (primarily in Texas), and five R&D engineers in Canada. The increased hiring of engineering personnel is part of the Company’s strong emphasis on bringing innovate products to market, and is anticipated to help expedite new-product development.
