THE COMMISSIONING AGENTS, INC. CULTURE

Commissioning Agents, Inc. invites only top candidates to join our team. We provide them with challenging assignments, and encourage professional development and growth. This formula for retaining capable and highly motivated people has proven successful.

Our staff comes from a variety of backgrounds. More than half of the staff served in the Navy as a nuclear-trained officer or technical specialist. As a result of this training we understand how to develop and use written procedures for testing, maintenance, and operations, and have integrity and a solid work ethic that allows us to learn new equipment and systems quickly.

During commissioning work we utilize our experience to identify aspects of the installation or operation that may not be part of the protocol, but could cause operational issues later. Commissioning Agents is proactive in troubleshooting to correct issues in concert with the vendor or construction manager. We also have several key people with over 20 years working for pharmaceutical manufacturers in validation and quality assurance positions.

DIFERENTIATING OURSELVESOur customers tell us we stand apart from other contractors for two reasons:

1. We help fix and, more importantly, drive issues to completion. We will attempt to foresee and minimize and/or avoid road-blocks to get problems retested properly, with documentation, to meet expectations.

2. We do what is in the customer’s best interest, even when it may not be in our best interest.

Our internal quality system will ensure that our deliverables are professional and free from grammatical, spelling and document formatting errors prior to submittal.

Our field quality program delivery method addresses all issues in a 3-tier solution to drive issues to immediate resolution. This program works as a cooperative team with our client, engineers and contractors. Moreover, we will consider schedule, client requirements and project costs while keeping an eye on the targeted results.

EARNING A SOLID REPUTATION

Customers routinely provide us with unsolicited, positive feedback on the performance of our teams because we remove hurdles and roadblocks while others wait for them to be removed. We facilitate progress, while others are busy documenting why they can’t make progress.

Some of this feedback includes:"There were numerous contractors (i.e., no one company had total responsibility) and you (CAI) were able to get them all to work as a team with a common goal. Your team leader stepped into a very difficult position as the C & Q lead of a very dysfunctional team. He was able to calm the "noise" and get the team focused on execution. The Commissioning & Q/CSV program was well integrated and quite successful.”

“We have been very impressed with CAI’s commitment to getting the job done with your ‘whatever it takes’ attitude.”

“After working with various commissioning/ qualification contractors, my experiences with CAI have been the most effective and rewarding. With past contractors, I have been the one to educate their team. It has been a relief to receive an education from the validation experts.”

“I have had the opportunity in my seven years as department manager to have worked with numerous other contract services organizations; by far, Commissioning Agents proved the best value to me and my company.”

CREATING CUSTOMER SATISFACTIONCommissioning Agents, Inc wants to partner with you on future projects. We strive to elicit a positive reaction about our work from each and every client. Because of our reputation, dedication, and unique way of training and fielding a high performance team, we are your best choice to partner with for the successful completion of projects. We are awarded nearly 90 percent of work requested from repeat customers, and we look forward to the opportunity to earn additional repeat customers.

STRONG PERFORMANCE = SOLID GROWTH

PREMIER PROVIDERCommissioning/Validation is our primary line of work. We are currently engaged as either the sole or lead commissioning contractor at 10 major projects, for 5 different Fortune 500 companies. The capital budgets for these major projects exceed $2 billion, with the commissioning service contracts totaling

more than $20 million.

With current annual sales of nearly $28 million, we have the skilled resources and financial strength to tackle a wide range of projects: any size, in any location around the world.

GROWTH STRATEGYWe grow only as fast as we can hire top quality people, and properly train and assimilate them into our project teams.

Some of our competition will provide an experience project manager and one or two current employees, and then hire the remainder of the team. We believe this strategy does not serve a client’s best interest, even when it results in a team of mostly local people. In our line of work, we believe it is critical to have a well-oiled, efficient team of people, most of whom are familiar with each other and with the work requirements. Hence, we provide 70 – 90% of any project team from our current staff.

We carefully select the projects we accept to ensure we meet our commitments and provide a positive project experience. Our growth occurs as a result of exceeding client expectations, which lead to more and larger projects. Commissioning Agents, Inc.’s reputation is spreading, leading to new business opportunities, which we translate into professional growth opportunities for our people.
