HOUSTON — February 10, 2010 — As the leader in flash memory programming technology, BPM Microsystems continues to outperform its competition by offering a guaranteed delivery date for new flash memory algorithm support in as fast as two business days and by offering a new reduced price annual support agreement option for the Flashstream® starting at MSRP $995.
“The rapid pace of change in the flash market puts new demands on our customers to be able to react quickly when they have a new device to program,” said Bill White, president and chief executive officer. “Our customers rely on BPM Microsystems to provide them with timely solutions to meet their production deadlines.”
As with all support agreements, Flashstream® customers receive scheduled BPWin software releases, access to the latest fully tested algorithms, critical algorithm updates, daily beta software releases, and priority technical support at a lower MSRP of just $995. This new support option complements the standard support agreement with which customers can request six flash memory additions with a typical guaranteed delivery date within two to three weeks of order acceptance based on the complexity of the device and the availability of specifications and sample devices. Expedited delivery of two or five business days is optional under both support plans.
BPM Microsystem’s Guaranteed Delivery Program gives customers the satisfaction of on-time delivery with equal access to device support resources. In 2009, the company’s device support team met or exceeded guaranteed delivery dates 99 percent of the time. They met or exceeded expedited guaranteed delivery dates 100 percent of the time.
BPM Microsystems is committed to providing its customers with the highest level of support in the device programming industry. Its device support engineers work closely with the semiconductor manufacturers, which allows them to exchange information during the algorithm development process and ensure devices are properly supported.
