Corporate Profile

   
 

In our inception, Pioneer's success is mostly due to its reliability and responsive business practices. By engaging with the customer early in the product development cycle, Pioneer's engineering and management teams have assisted its customers in every phase including, product design and material exploration. Rapid prototyping, qualification and responsive process management ensure fast manufacturability and high quality for each product we produce.

More than 20 dedicated CAD/CAM technicians and engineering personnel utilizing multiple systems with the latest hardware and software technologies are committed to delivering optimum results with every project Pioneer undertakes. Pioneer also leverages state-of-the-art automated assembly solutions to maximize productivity and reduce redundancies.

A core component to Pioneer's identity is its emphasis on quality control where it emphasizes SPC integration and programmable vision systems for automated part inspection. Critically, Pioneer follows stringent process controls with detailed IQ, OQ and PQ procedures that in some cases, exceed its ISO 9001:2000 requirements.
