8,472 and Counting

One year provides 8760 hours to work, play, sleep or whatever it is we hope to do, unless it is a leap year then we get an extra twenty four. This year at CPI it seems to me that we've gotten the most out of the year by introducing new products, expanding manufacturing capabilities, opening a new technology center and adding exciting new infrastructure management capabilities to our already comprehensive solution set.

I've collected a few highlights of our year and listed them below. For a more complete overview, take a look at our enewsletter archive. If you don't receive our monthly enewsletter, you can subscribe now.
