SANTA FE SPRINGS, CALIF (May 22, 2023) – One year ago, PRO-TECH Design & Manufacturing, Inc.,  acquired Surgical Technologies, Inc. (STI) of St. Paul, MN. The combined company is a full-service, ISO  13485 certified medical device contract manufacturer with operations in Santa Fe Springs, CA; St. Paul,  MN; and Arlington, TX. 

“The goal of the acquisition was to expand our manufacturing capabilities to include a presence in the  important Minneapolis/St. Paul medical device corridor. After one year, we are very pleased with the  results. The people of STI have been terrific and very welcoming, and customers are pleased that we  

now have redundant locations across the country to meet their needs. We could not be happier,” said  Pamela McMaster, CEO, PRO-TECH Design. 

Over the past year, the combined entity has worked diligently to integrate their operations and  workflow, while also maintaining the independent spirit of each location. Each milestone that was  outlined during the initial acquisition phase has been achieved. These include deploying a new Enterprise Management Software system, conducting company-wide training, and welcoming new  customers. Additionally, the St. Paul site has transitioned to a new quality assurance system and  successfully hosted their first ISO audit under that system. Finally, long-term projects have been  initiated to modernize packaging and labeling equipment. 

“Our family has deep roots in the State of Minnesota, and it has been gratifying to see the company  expand into this area. I have lived in Minnesota most of my life, and it has been great to walk into the St. Paul office every day and see the team working so hard to make this acquisition a success. I am very  proud of the people in our office and of the work they have done along with the rest of the organization.  I am excited to see how this combined company will grow in the future,” commented Jeff Swanson, Vice  President, PRO-TECH Design.
