Thanksgiving 2019 at BPM

by Scott Bronstad | Dec 2, 2019 | Events

We at BPM have much to be thankful for… and we shared a meal together and celebrated a successful year, even with a tough economy. We enjoyed a tradition turkey lunch along with some not-so-traditional treats (like home-made spring rolls).

There was a “wild turkey” scavenger hunt… all over the building there were turkeys. At about 10am, the word went out that there was a prize for the person with the most turkeys… those who check their email (like yours truly) began to gather turkeys. The winners got gift cards for HEB, a popular grocery store here in Texas.

We are very grateful to work with such amazing people…so generous, kind, talented, intelligent, hard-working and resourceful — (and really great cooks too!).

SMTA Guadalajara 2019 Day Two

Great Show in Guadalajara

“We had a great show in Guadalajara, Mexico where we released our newest machine, the 3901,” says Armando Garcia, BPM’s former Sales Director-Americas. “This machine has been developed to reach out to those customers who need to increase quality, performance and time to market and do not have a high volume to approve a purchasing of an automated system.”

“Immediately after releasing the machine, we started to have several opportunities to implement this solution, where the low price is the new thing in regards to the brand BPM Microsystems, but the quality is the same old one. Now, our customers will have BPM’s quality and low price. Only BPM can provide to the market all in one bundle: research, development, and manufacturing in the USA competing against Asian’s prices,” says Garcia.
