SP, Mechanical Engineering Manager, Medical Products Firm, August 9, 2007


We would like to take this opportunity to thank Concurrent Design for all of their hard work on this project to this point. The designs we have seen so far have proven that we hired the right people. We were very impressed with the ID presented to us last week! Keep up the good work.
SP, Mechanical Engineering Manager, Medical Products Firm, July 16, 2007


Concurrent Design has consistently been an excellent resource for anything from piece-part prototyping to large-scale, complex electromechanical systems design. I have used them and recommended them to others over the past 10 years on various high-technology projects. My experience has always been on-time delivery of high quality designs by very experienced professionals.
KP, Sr. Equipment Engineer, Clean Energy Firm. January 11, 2007


I just wanted to let you know that I did a test assembly on all the parts I have in hand after I received the laser platform today. I’m pleased to inform you that I’ve not found a single mistake on any of the parts, and everything fit together perfectly. The parts look great and I want to compliment you and your team (staff and vendors) on a job well done. It’s a great pleasure doing business with such a diligent, detail-oriented, and professional group of individuals!
JP, Opto-Mechanical Engineer, BioSciences Firm, September 08, 2006


It was a pleasure working with Concurrent. I foresee future projects that I will be coming to you for your services.
WB, Director of Engineering, Commercial Products Supplier, June 22, 2006


We really appreciate the technical competence, follow-through, and over-all professionalism that you and your people demonstrated while working on several projects for us during 2005. Our priorities and project schedules shift frequently, so we especially value your flexibility, responsiveness, and "can do" attitude. We look forward to working with you many more times in the future.

Again, it is a pleasure to work with you and your people. Thank you,
BM, Engineering Project Manager, Electronic Products Supplier, March 8, 2006


I thought you'd appreciate the attached photographs of the Tyco ATCA-16S "Air Test Model" that your team designed, fabricated and assembled for us.

Although this unit is intended primarily for Tyco airflow, velocity and noise evaluation testing, it will none-the-less be viewed by our first customer as tangible proof of our design concept. When that customer review does happen later this month; our biggest challenge may well be convincing them that it's only a semi-functional-model and not an orderable-functional-prototype! That would be a great problem to have and would be attributable to the outstanding quality of what you've provided.

From a bigger-picture perspective, I would also like to extend my appreciation to you and the Concurrent Team for being such a multi-skilled, dependable and strategic partner to Tyco … At this point in our relationship, I can honestly say that Concurrent has gone from being a supplier that delivers "customer satisfaction" ... to being a strategic partner that produces "customer delight"!

Many thanks to you and your team! I look forward to continued expansion of our relationship and business in the future.
RL, Director of Design Engineering, Tyco Printed Circuit Group, January 11, 2006


This worked out really well. I would like to do this kind of thing more often …Thanks for your outstanding support as always…
JY. Sr. Product Development Engineer, Thermal/Mechanical Engineering, Semiconductor IDM, August 19, 2005


Concurrent Design …has an impressive track record of designing and fabricating first-of-a-kind manufacturing equipment. They have good experience in the development of manufacturing equipment for optical components, electrical components and semiconductors. They have worked with Fortune 500 companies and start-ups. The local availability of such manufacturing support should be an important factor for the types of companies we are trying to attract… while helping Austin grow.
Dr. RH, Director, Center for Electromechanics, The University of Texas at Austin. July 18, 2005


Mike has been very easy to work with and has represented Concurrent Design well. If CPI chooses to continue working with Concurrent Design, I will look forward to working with Mike.
BD, Product Manager, Electronic Products Supplier, March 16, 2005


Thank you for your continued support. Concurrent certainly has established a reputation for high quality, timely delivery, and flexibility within (our firm). We greatly appreciate your continued support.

Thanks for your message and the work; your guys have done a superb job.
CS, Program Manager, Test Equipment Supplier, August 31, 2004


I really appreciate the effort put forth by everyone at Concurrent Design and just wanted to say "Thank You".
TD, Project Design Engineer, Test Equipment Supplier, August 26, 2004


People who are making parts from (your) drawings say they look real good. [When] I asked what they would like different, they said nothing.
KK, Senior Maintenance Technician, Semiconductor IDM, August 15, 2004


We have been happy with your work and will keep you in mind for new projects.
JF, VP Operations, Test Equipment Supplier, July 28, 2004


Your approach to the bid process was exceptionally professional. We will be sure to keep you in mind as other potential opportunities arise.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Concurrent Design for providing professional and high quality work to my group in the last 3 years.
FC, Engineering Manager, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, May 03, 2004


First off, this is the best looking, finest piece of development equipment I have ever seen. This is said with authority, as I have worked on about 90+ such systems, and without reservations this is the best looking system ever.
SB, President, Safety Consultant, January 21, 2004



Everything is working very well. Your folks are doing a great job; we are even picking off a few designs that aren’t a part of the original project.
WO, Engineering Manager, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, December 15, 2003



It was a pleasure to work with Concurrent Design on the hand-held controller console. Although this was a small project, it was very important to us and our customer. You provided the same level of engineering support that I have seen you deliver on much more complex devices.

We were also delighted to find that the first article assembled perfectly. It was as if we were building the five thousandth unit instead of the first.

Probably most important, our customer was very pleased with the product we delivered. I have heard from other suppliers that they have spoken highly of your work and that they exhibited it without reservation as part of the systems that they manufacture.

Thank you for a competent and professional execution of our requirement.
BR, Ph.D., Senior Regulatory Engineer, EMI Consultant, May 6, 2003


Our business paradigm was to only staff those functions that provided a market differentiation. i.e., optics, holography and image processing. Following that business model, we contracted out our mechanical design to Concurrent Design. Since we were a startup company, it was crucial to our success that Concurrent Design would function as if they were actually part of our company. They did a terrific job at that - there was great teamwork between the two companies. The communications were excellent, and they did an outstanding job of supporting us. Because we worked 24/7, many times they had to come in at odd hours to do work and that never presented a problem - whenever we needed their help, they were there. They were very cost conscious, often coming up with ideas of how to reduce our costs. They took their schedule commitments very carefully, and met those commitments.

The results of the project were excellent - they did a great job! Concurrent Design has a fine reputation, so I expected a lot from them when I brought them in to do the mechanical design. However, they even exceeded my high expectations. I would use them again, and highly recommend them.
BD, Program Director, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, February 11, 2003


I went to Concurrent Design because I was having difficulty "getting outside the box" in my thinking regarding the design of a new console. They were helpful in illustrating and modeling various design alternatives. Not only was their design guidance helpful, they offered valuable advice on the materials and manufacturing considerations for the new design. In other words, their design expertise was grounded in "real world" manufacturing expertise, and they brought that added value to the table in reviewing design alternatives.

In the end, I am very satisfied with their design support for the project. In fact, as my business grows, and I launch other new products, I would not hesitate to utilize their services again.
DR, President, Industrial Equipment Supplier, February 10, 2003


Concurrent was very good at staying in touch via phone and email throughout the project.
SJ, President, Commercial Product Supplier, February 11, 2003


Telle is doing well. He has freed me to do other things, which was our primary reason for bringing him in. Most importantly he knows Pro/E 2001 well enough that I don’t have to teach him anything therefore allowing him to work without diluting my time. I am very satisfied with him and his work.
SS, Senior Mechanical Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, May 20, 2002


All in all, the assembly process went flawlessly. This is due in large part to the hard work and attention to detail of the team at Concurrent Design. They had all the hardware required queued up and ready to install as soon as we pulled the trigger.
JP, Senior Mechanical Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, April 13, 2002


It would be an honor to give him a review of his performance. Telle has been instrumental in the work I am doing which involves the use of CAD models in our printed material. Telle works with tremendous attention to detail and pride in his work, which is refreshing.

I really appreciate working with him and hope I have the pleasure of working with him in the future.
TQ, Technical Publications Dept., Medical Products Supplier, March 26, 2002.


We tried the tool and it worked great. Thanks for all your help on this project
GM, Tool Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, February 14, 2002


While we still have a ways to go with this packaging, it is yet another example of the outstanding work you and your team have done for us - it is greatly appreciated!!
BD, Program Director, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, February 13, 2002


Thanks again for all the hard work, the Head Units look great.
FB, Engineering Manager, Commercial Product Supplier, December 4, 2001


Hope you guys are busy as ever. (Our customer) said you were doing good work for him.
PG, Software VAR, November 27, 2001


Thank you for the model and your extraordinary efforts in getting this done in a timely fashion.
MJ, Mechanical Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, June 11, 2001

JP, Senior Mechanical Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, June 7, 2001


Concurrent in my opinion is the shining star of all our vendors by a long shot.
LS, Technical Specialist, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, May 31, 2001


I did receive the drawings. They look real good.
DG, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, July 14, 2000


Got my FEDEX copy of the hardware requirements document (Mechanical Specification) yesterday.

What a nice beginning!! The hard document itself with all the figures intact (as opposed to the electronic copy I worked from) is extremely impressive.

We have a lot of work still in front of us, but you have done a really excellent job in my opinion of laying out the road to be followed. My congratulations to the …Concurrent design team. NICE JOB!!!
Dr. CET, Chief Technical Officer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, June 13, 2000.


Pete is doing an excellent job with the limited information and direction to work from. It is greatly appreciated!
TR, Engineering Project Manager, Telecommunications Equipment Supplier, May 8, 2000


They did an outstanding job and we got a lot for our money. I highly recommend them for future engineering work.
MR, Project Engineer, Telecommunications Equipment Supplier, February 3, 2000


Just wanted to let you know that the updated drawings you have returned to us thus far have been exceptional.

There have been very few if any errors. Also, it has not gone unnoticed, your group efforts to go beyond our redlined markups to make all drawings consistent.

It is apparent that someone there, if not all, is very familiar with drafting standards and has gone as far as showing Sectional Views, Views, Details, etc in Alpha order, as well as questioning anything that is not part of the norm.

Anyway, your people are doing a great job.
GC, Documentation Control, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, October 28, 1999


(Our) Semiconductor Equipment Operations contracted with Concurrent Design and Drafting to perform engineering design work on Ion Implanter upgrades and on new designs. Specifically, Concurrent redesigned beam line optical components; created component assembly fixtures and alignment jigs; created vacuum components/housings capable of operating in the 5 x 10E-7 torr range; and wrote assembly and test procedures covering these designs.

Concurrent personnel worked with (our) engineers and physicists to learn the design requirements for these projects then pursued the tasks through conceptual, design, and Alpha review which analyzed material selection, costs, serviceability, design for manufacture, and design for assembly. In all of these reviews, Concurrent made thorough, professional presentations that were very well accepted. Concurrent worked with (our) personnel to understand and meet (our) documentation requirements for all project drawings. The quality of this documentation exceeded that of other contractors and the prototype equipment built from this documentation was assembled without problems. Concurrent stayed with the project through component manufacture and prototype construction, and acted as a liaison with (our) suppliers on critical components.

In summary, Concurrent personnel interfaced with (our) personnel in a friendly, professional manner and met very demanding project schedule and cost goals. It is a pleasure to work with such a talented, insightful, and professional organization. I recommend their work highly, and I would not hesitate to contract their services again in the future.
DS, Principal Engineer, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, October 30, 1998.


For some time, we have wanted to express our appreciation for your assistance with our Person-Guided Vehicle (PGV) program.

During the eighteen months our program has been active, your help enabled us to reach a number of major milestones:
Completion of proof-of-concept models and full prototypes in time for demonstration and display at several major trade shows;
Full implementation of major design iterations in time for critical on-site customer demonstrations, and Assistance in numerous tasks including documentation assistance for four important patent disclosures.

As our program has evolved, we have been very impressed with:
Your flexibility in responding rapidly to conditions that changed on an almost daily basis.
Your ability to handle difficult design tasks.
Your ability to handle all aspects of prototype development including parts management and construction, and
Your knowledge of and relationship with the Greater Austin parts manufacturing community.

This program has been characterized by frequent and difficult deadlines. We would not have been able to meet these goals without your help.
PB, Vice President, Technical Marketing, Semiconductor Equipment Supplier, October 27, 1998


When (we) needed outside additional engineering support, Concurrent Design and Drafting filled all our needs. Concurrent quickly learned (our) product lines and then engineered modifications to these lines under the pressures of contractual deliveries. Concurrent managed the project through all of its phases: Design Management, Design, Detailing, Checking, Bill of Material Preparation, Revision Control, and User Manual Preparation.

Additionally, Concurrent helped (our) projects go smoothly because of their willingness to work within our numbering systems and their competence in working out all the little details that must be addressed when transferring drawings and information packages over networks.

Working with a group as professional as Concurrent was a profitable experience for (us) and I would recommend their services without reservation.
WW, Engineering Manager, Industrial Equipment Supplier, December 14, 1996


I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation to you and the rest of the staff at Concurrent Design. It has been a great pleasure to work with all of you during the last several months. Bill Adair and Jim Smith have done an excellent job. Their performance and dedication to quality are particularly commendable considering the very difficult working environment we have had here… I would like to have the opportunity to recommend your service to other firms, so please don’t hesitate to refer prospective customers to me.
CZ, P.E., Research Manager, Commercial Products . July 21, 1995
