With sales of the Company's popular SafeTrace(R) donor product
increasing, Wyndgate's Professional Services department is
currently engaged in over three times the number of implementations
than at this same time last year. In addition, the department's
total number of operational sites for the SafeTrace Tx(R)
transfusion product has almost doubled. An organizational
re-structure, with emphasis on functional expertise, has helped
strengthen professional services and expedite go-lives for the
Company's new customers. An unprecedented volume of client sites
added in the last year has fueled demand for Educational Services.
In the past six months, the group has doubled its staff, adding
instructors with credentials in adult learning styles and
professional technical writing techniques. The Educational
department has enhanced Wyndgate's product curriculum by adding
courses, offering Web-based classes and industry-based education,
while providing end- user education for all of the Company's
products. These products include the Company's next-generation
software, ElDorado(TM) Donor Doc(TM), which was recently granted
510(k) clearance for sale in the U.S. The expansion of Educational
Services means our customers now have more options available to
keep professional credentials current and receive the education
necessary to successfully stay abreast of industry changes and
software updates. Wyndgate's Client Support department has
experienced a 33% growth in headcount over the past six months. As
call volumes rise due to the increasing number of live customers,
the department consistently provides quality customer support
services. In an effort to remain responsive to customers, the
department has created goals associated with call handling to track
and improve client support related metrics. These metrics enable
Client Support to examine quality indicators, thus enhancing client
satisfaction and providing positive end results. Installation,
implementation and ongoing support of customers' technical needs
are handled through the Company's Technical Services department.
Climbing sales and software upgrade activities have created
substantial increases in the number of technical service requests.
In keeping step with customers' need for technical assistance, the
department has added 20% more staff this year. The department
expects continued growth and expansion to support and deliver on
the accumulation of the Company's customer requests for assistance.
Timothy J. Pellegrini, Vice President of Operations for Wyndgate
Technologies, commented, "Overall, Wyndgate is experiencing record
growth. Increased sales of our sought after blood management
software systems, SafeTrace(R) and SafeTrace Tx(R), as well as our
new electronic health history questionnaire, ElDorado(TM) Donor
Doc(TM), are spurring unprecedented growth in the Operations
department." Mr. Pellegrini continued, "I'm very proud of our
team's ability to keep ahead of the growth, while at the same time
continuing to provide excellent customer service. As always,
Wyndgate has made a conscious commitment to provide our customers
with quality services by investing in technology and resources."
