Zey- I want to know if we had a shot at this order, or if it was precontracted or part of a prior contract. ( replacement of prior Morpho etd units like the United Airlines "deal"). THIS is important to know.
Sure, I am not happy to see a single sale go to anyone other than IMSC. But the devil is in the details that are NOT in the PR. Dr. Jones had to be on top of this, IF we had any kind of chance to compete. But we may have been actually competing with a contract designed by Dr. Jones when he was at Morpho. Anyway you slice this, its NOT a good thing to hear. But to think Dr.Jones blew another sale prior to hearing the details of the deal does not make sense either.
If it was an open competition, Its in the client's interest to engage all 3 etd makers and throw a "knife" into the room and see who cuts the price fastest and deepest. I will say this, I believe they bought an inferior machine, so in my opinion, there must be an explanation. But I support IMSC, Dr. Jones, Dr. McGann and CEO Bolduc so will reserve disappointment until hearing the details.
Best of Luck to ALL IMSC LONGS!
