strict environmental controls and minimize measurement uncertainties . This move was necessitated by our outgrowing the building we had been operating in since the late 1990s , with space constraints becoming apparent about five years ago . Beyond positioning us for continued growth and innovation , this new facility should make a significant difference in our throughput and turnaround times for our service offerings ,” Dan elaborates .
With this increased capacity , 2025 promises to be an exciting year for MSI Viking . Steve shares insights into the companies ’ plans and priorities for the new year . “ As part of our growth strategy , we aim not only for organic growth in sales and services but also expansion through acquisitions , as it is often a faster route to market for us . To kick off the new year , we have acquired a calibration lab that will get us to market more quickly . This acquisition fits well with our general offering as we provide in-lab calibration typically complemented by the sale of high-precision measuring instrumentation . We are now finalizing a confidential transaction and will soon shift our focus on integrating that newly acquired company into MSI Viking . Leveraging experience from our past successful integrations , we are well-prepared to ensure our cultures assimilate rapidly and our processes are streamlined . Such integration can be challenging for any organization , regardless of size , so having a concrete method to approach this transition is crucial .
“ Furthermore , 2025 will be marked by a couple of new relationships . One such partnership is with Hexagon , whom we partnered with because it is a global leader in precision coordinate metrology ,
... this new facility should make a significant difference in our throughput and turnaround times
but also because it involves us in the postsale servicing of its equipment . This was a key contractual consideration for us and provided the motivation for fostering a strong partnership between our organizations . The second relationship is with Waygate Technologies , a company specializing in advanced X-ray and computed tomography ( CT ) systems for industrial applications including a significant focus on dimensional metrology . Given that this relationship has only just started , we will dedicate significant attention to bringing Waygate Technologies ’ products to market throughout this year ,” he concludes .
Beyond its renowned measurement technologies and services , MSI Viking shines through strategic partnerships that empower manufacturers in their pursuit of precision and quality . ■
