TORRANCE, CA — September 20, 2008. Analysts Incorporated—the acknowledged leader in oil analysis services since 1960—is proud to announce the recruitment of two highly respected industry figures: George Uraguchi joins Analysts’ Torrance Operation as CIO, bringing a wealth of experience and talent to his new post, and Brent Crittenden takes the reigns in Kentucky as the new Manager of Analysts’ Louisville Laboratory. “George comes to us with over 20 years of experience in software development and the management of IT systems,” states Michael Forgeron, President of Analysts, Inc. “As our new CIO, we will look to him to enhance Analysts’ IT systems and to interface with our major clients to help address their needs and ensure optimal service.”
A CIO with an eye on the future.
George Uraguchi comes to Analysts with an extensive background in IT development and corporate management. His resume includes a stint as Project Manager on the Mars Rover Sample Return Proposal Team at TRW Space and Defense. He later held the post of Technical Architecture Manager at Nissan Motor Corporation, USA. And in recent years, he has served as Director of Technology; first at Marymount College and later at the Art Institute of California. Surveying the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, he sees a wealth of possibilities in his new role; “Over the years, Analysts has compiled a massive library of sample data for a wide spectrum of clients. As the new CIO, I’ll investigate innovative ways to help our clients mine this data and exploit its value. Ultimately, our goal is to serve clients in ways that they have yet to imagine.”
Quality comes with experience.
Brent Crittenden began his career over 16 years ago at the Laboratory Corporation of America (LapCorp). As promotion followed promotion, Brent worked his way up from Lab Technologist to Assistant Supervisor to Supervisor—finally settling in as Laboratory Manger at LabCorp. “Brent’s previous background in spectrochemical analysis of mechanical fluids combined with his experience as a manager makes him an invaluable asset to our operation in Kentucky,” states Analysts President Michael Forgeron, “he is a welcome addition to the Analysts team.” Since his arrival, Crittenden has already witnessed a significant boost in productivity. Brent: “In just a few months we have been able to improve our average turn around time from about 1.2 days to under 0.8 days per sample.” His credo for success; “In my years of laboratory management, I learned that you never sacrifice quality for quantity. Giving your customer the highest quality results in the shortest possible time frame is the key to keeping customers satisfied.”
