Performance Technologies Awarded Gold Vendor Status from Venture Development Corporation10 May 2005
Performance Technologies (Nasdaq: PTIX - News), a leading developer of integrated systems, platforms, components and software, today announced it has been awarded Gold Board Vendor Status from Venture Development Corporation (VDC) for exemplary service to the embedded industry. Each year, VDC distributes Merchant Embedded Board User Satisfaction surveys in conjunction with the preparation of its Industry Overview of the Merchant Computer Boards for Embedded/Real-Time Applications Intelligence Program. Gold or Platinum status is awarded to the top 30 companies ranked in these surveys.
"Recently, there has been a wave of industry consolidation, which we expect to continue. As more companies offer broader product lines, we have elected to only award Platinum and Gold status in a single, all-encompassing category," said Eric Gulliksen, embedded hardware practice director for VDC. "Since more board categories are now included in the evaluation, making more firms eligible for an award, this actually makes achieving Platinum or Gold status more difficult than it had been in the past."
"Venture Development Corporation is among the leading analyst firms in the embedded marketplace, and its opinions and reports are highly valued throughout the industry," said Don Turrell, president and CEO of Performance Technologies. "We are honored to receive this prestigious distinction from such a respected firm."
