HERRERA & COMPANY NEWS  AGILENT GETS 7.8 MILLION IN ETP FUNDING


Agilent Technologies is a global diversified manufacturing technology company focusing on high growth markets in the life sciences, communications, and electronics industries. The company represents itself as the world’s premier measurement company and a technology leader in communications, electronics, life sciences and chemical analysis. Its business excels in applying measurement technologies to develop products that sense, analyze, display and communicate data.

Agilent senior management team has been transforming the company from a diversified technology company into a focused measurement company which means that the organization will concentrate on delivering state-of-the-art measurement solutions in electronic and bio-analytical measurement to support life sciences and related industries and away from the semiconductor tools industry. This is a major change for the company and senior management launched this strategic shift because it is convinced that greater emphasis on the strengths that make Agilent the world’s premier measurement company will enable it to grow and prosper.

Many of its new technologies developed under the new strategy provide Agilent with a competitive advantage and differentiation in the marketplace but place a heavy burden on worker proficiency. Under the ETP contract Agilent will deliver training to expand employee skills so that they gain proficiency to work in different technological areas enabling them to adapt to changing business requirements and to improve their productivity.
