GlobalSpec Adds New Technical Services Resource To Website“Service Finder” Expands Search Capabilities Available to Engineers and Technical BuyersTROY, NY (June 4, 2002) - GlobalSpec, Inc., the leading Web-based, integrated product classification and discovery destination, has launched a new service to connect engineers and other technical buyers with companies that provide contract manufacturing and services, and instrument testing and calibration. GlobalSpec’s new resource, Service Finder, allows technical buyers to search for specialized services in the areas of part fabrication and production, electrical / electronic manufacturing, and testing services, using criteria based on capabilities, qualifications, specialties, and geographic location. When the right service providers are found, GlobalSpec streamlines the process of contacting them and requesting quotations. In announcing Service Finder, John Schneiter, GlobalSpec’s President, said “GlobalSpec has won worldwide recognition in the engineering community as the resource that allows buyers of technical products to find what they need by searching based on specifications and performance parameters. Service Finder is a natural extension of that concept.” Added Schneiter, “A recent survey indicated that 77% of our user population has actively looked for an engineering service supplier in the past six months. Service Finder facilitates that process, making it a great marketing channel for those companies that provide technical services. GlobalSpec’s value is in providing a very cost-effective way for them to reach highly-targeted potential customers early in their decision process.” Technical services that are now searchable on GlobalSpec.com include Printed Circuit Board Services, Nondestructive Testing Services, Forging Services, Machine Shop Services, Rapid Prototyping Services, and Welding and Structural Fabrications to name a few.
