Luis Alvarez Joins DTx, Inc. as New Vice President of Operations
1 August 2004, Melbourne, Florida

DTx, Inc., a leading provider of custom embedded computing solutions, announces Luis Alvarez has joined the company as the new Vice President of Operations.

In his first year, Alvarez will be focused on improving product delivery speed. “We are concentrating on the Customer,” reports Alvarez. “Fast and accurate responses to our Customer’s requirements is our number one priority.” Mr. Alvarez has already begun implementing new programs with great success. In the factory, Alvarez headed the implementation of automated product testing and the transition to a Lean production environment, increasing throughput and productivity. In the warehouse, inventory turns have increased dramatically as a result of new efforts to further develop DTx’s supplier relationships and the implementation of consignment programs with key suppliers.

Alvarez, the former Vice President of Operations at JDS Uniphase of Melbourne, Florida, has also held high level management positions in engineering and manufacturing with other large telecommunications companies. He has over 16 years experience in product development, supply chain management, quality control, and high volume and high mix manufacturing of commercial, military and customized products. Alvarez holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Florida Institute of Technology and a Master in Business Administration degree from Centenary College.

According to DTx President, Art Schmitt, “The addition of Luis Alvarez to our team fits our direction and strategy perfectly. As DTx continues to grow and expand, we are committed to ensuring our Customers will receive the same quality solutions and service they have come to expect from DTx. Luis’ professional accomplishments combined with his extensive experience implementing and managing strategic processes and improvement initiatives in manufacturing operations, make him a welcome addition to the DTx family.”
