VIEWPOINT 2026: Brad Ferry, Director of Business Development, Circuit Technology Center
This comes as the electronics industry increasingly prioritizes sustainability and circularity. Notably, our CEO, Jeff Ferry, is serving as chair of a new IPC committee dedicated to establishing industry standards for the proper removal and reuse of electronic components. Our support for mission-critical OEMs and assembly partners expanded significantly this year. We streamlined reclaim and component tinning operations to improve both quality and throughput, and we continued to invest in automation. We added two additional Robotic Hot Solder Dip (RHSD) machines, bringing our total to six. This added capacity enhances our ability to support the growing need for tin whisker mitigation and lead finish conversion for high-reliability components. We also made strategic progress in expanding our national reach, particularly on the West Coast. With the launch of a new rep partnership with Restronics Southern California, we've established a foothold in one of the most important defense and aerospace hubs in the country. Our structured rep model and targeted outreach efforts have already begun to generate meaningful traction in that region. Most importantly, we continued to invest in the people and capabilities that fuel our long-term success. We welcomed an experienced machinist to meet rising demand for precision drilling of undefiled BGAs, and expanded our business development and account management functions to better support our growing customer base. With a culture rooted in transparency, accountability, and technical excellence, we're not just growing, we're building a sustainable foundation for the future. Thank you to every member of the CTC team for making 2025 such a standout year. After 42 years in business, it still feels like we're just getting started.
