Testimonials

The typical solution provider requires that customers be specific about the characterization techniques to be used to analyse their samples. This model of operation is lacking because more than often customers do not know enough about characterization. They can be specifying the wrong techniques and/or missing out on advanced techniques/tools that may provide better answers. Outermost understands as a high level what customers want to know and devises characterization plans to provide answers. They have access to the world's best and most advanced specialists, techniques, and tools and have provided me with answers, sometimes with methods that I did not know existed or were possible. I recommend Outermost to any engineer or scientist who wants answers.
