"Because Southwest TAAC was willing to come in and help us during that time frame where we needed some assistance and helped us develop our product, helped us pay for the technicians and the software engineers, helped us to pay for our technical manuals that we needed for the product, helped us pay for the FDA approval, we were able to get back into the international marketplace."

Gary Kinley,
Advanced Medical Instruments
President
