Concurrent Technologies Plc
(“Concurrent Technologies” or the 'Company')
Supply Agreement with Global Medical Technology Company
Concurrent Technologies, a world leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer boards for critical applications, has entered into a supply agreement with a Fortune 500 global medical technology company, and has received an initial USD$2.2 million order for first year product shipments. Initial shipments have already commenced for qualification purposes with volume shipments scheduled to start at the end of 2022. The customer is then expected to place similar size orders on an annual basis for several years to come.
The customer's needs were multi-faceted and challenging. Concurrent Technologies developed a product that maintained backwards compatibility with the external interfaces of the prior product; demonstrated the ability to manage and overcome issues that would prevent multi-year production without changes; and met all the customer's quality and supply chain requirements. Concurrent Technologies also ported the customer's application software to work seamlessly on the new hardware, accelerating the introduction of the customer's next generation machine.
Dr. Miles Adcock, CEO of Concurrent Technologies, commented: “We pride ourselves on delivering extremely reliable products to a very high-quality standard which suits customers from many vertical market segments including medical. The required product was developed at pace in line with the expectation we have set for increasing the cadence of new product introductions. With the customer intending to place similar size orders on an annual basis for several years to come, this is expected to provide a steady revenue stream that is wholly accretive to our current business.”
