2020 began with significant momentum resultling in substantial progress on all fronts. We started by announcing accession to the MOBI automotive blockchain consortium to be a part of their newly formed supply chain workgroup, as we see ourselves possessing comparative expertise here, to begin establishing standards for the industry. This was followed by the achievement of ITAR registration status which is a necessary designation for Aerospace and Defense subcontracting eligibility. On the product front we launched Q1 by releasing a website redesign to accomodate a series of completed feature launches which had been completed over the course of 2019. No sooner had we done so when we were called upon to refocus our attention to the rapidly unfolding COVID-19 pandemic which would set in motion a series of supply chain shocks touching all levels of industry. The required response of our company harkened us to summon the convictions of our founding mission to provide rapid response local hardware supply chain solutions for essential infrastructure industries and their sustainability. Accordingly this Quarter’s update begins and ends with our efforts to help alleviate the current crisis we all face together.
