San Fernando, CA (July 20, 2004) – Precision Dynamics Corporation (PDC), a global leader in automatic wristband identification, announces the appointment of Thomas Harsin as its new technical support specialist for PDC bar code solutions.

Harsin, formerly a systems support specialist at Standard Register Corporation, will spearhead technical sales and support for implementations of bar code systems within healthcare organizations. He will also work on business development and establish strategic partnerships while offering pre-sales and post-sales technical support. Harsin brings to PDC over 30 years of technology experience specializing in bar code solutions and peripheral systems such as printers and software.
“The addition of Tom Harsin to PDC represents a continuous effort to expand our total bar code solution and to help establish the auto-ID arena for healthcare,” said Chuck Hugues, director of sales at PDC. “Tom will facilitate the implementation of our bar code identification systems which offer effective and efficient methods to improve overall patient safety and organizational processes.”
