Expert Witness Testimony and Depositions
For obvious reasons, our initial task is to quickly
enable the resolution of these quality excursions so that the client can
isolate the source, correct the source component and confirm when the
problem has, in fact, been resolved by these actions. Successfully
meeting these challenges enables the ultimate goal to be achieved;
getting the facility back into operation; producing acceptable product,
competing in the marketplace, meeting payroll and all other associated
benefits. Unfortunately, there will usually be a negative economic
impact on the affected company which will linger long after the problem
has been solved.
This impact manifests itself in a number of ways;
including, lost production and sales, loss of consumer confidence, loss
of quality personnel as well as the costs associated with actually
investigating and resolving the problem. It is reasonable for a company
impacted in this way to request compensation from an outside party which
has been clearly linked to the source of the quality excursion.
Should
such requests reach the point where litigation becomes the only option,
the principal investigators from Microanalytics can be engaged to
provide expert witness services in support of our findings. In addition
our unique expertise can also be engaged to review findings and
conclusions from outside investigative sources; especially as relates to
the complex field of odor and flavor cross-contamination.
