Testimonials

"Thanks again for all the help while we were at WMU. I was really impressed with the entire crew. Everyone was very open to changes and all requests were met with a 'we'll get it done attitude'. As you probably know many trials deviate from the original plan and your facility has shown that these deviations will be handled well. In our talks with Shawn, there was never an instance where I felt like we were a bother. There are a few times we wanted to try something different (base stock change, rod changes, additional formulas, …) none were met with any resistance. In a nutshell, we both felt very comfortable at your facility. I would have no issues using WMU pilot facilities in the future."
