What you are about to read is MY OPINION. Nothing
Post# of 8268

I think what is happening is BIEL has ‘a deal’ w/ one of the suppliers/distributors to CMMS and/or the VA. I also think we have an emerging contract relationship w/ Viant and that is the reason Dr. Sree Koneru is on our BOD.
These presumptions (opinions) solve a lot in terms of logistics and financials. For manufacturing, it removes the uncertainty of a China-based supplier of product. Taiwan is a flashpoint and relations w/ China are strained. Viant has international reach that can supply product to any of our distributors worldwide w/o all the drama and tension, not to mention shipping time, of having a manufacturer thousands of miles away in a potentially hostile situation. How this ties into the paucity of Raw Materials expenditures over the last 4 yrs is a good question. We keep CICD for the Asian distribution but should circumstances change, we have Viant. They also have a Design & Development division. It’s a smart move.
Working w/ a ‘local’ supplier to CMMS and/or the VA takes the buyout scenario off the table for now. It does, however, give BIEL some certainty in terms of revenue and, if/when announced, would do wonders for the share price. Refer to Post #339,901 (3331) on ihub (or Bielionaire on IH)) for a more expanded explanation on how that would play out. He’s put together a message board tome, lol. This revenue stream would give us the time, and resources, to clean up our balance sheet. Read 3331’s post - don’t want to steal his thunder.
The logistics of this are complicated, complex, time sensitive and politically charged, involving not only the nuts and bolts but official approvals as well. I think the Atlanta sites are a pilot project / launch-point to work out the myriad details. Working through a supplier who has already done the paperwork to work w/in the CMMS and/or VA bureaucracies is a huge bonus. They would ‘simply’ add our products to their catalog. Doing the legwork to make that happen would be their responsibility and thus freeing us to focus on supplying product to them for their distribution to the numerous CMMS and/or VA locations.
It would also explain having an NDA and the near total silence that ensues. Nobody needs or wants an army of bashturds crawling up your backside agitating for the impossible. The scope and magnitude of this project is enormous, beyond words. CEO Kelly Whelan has not been given enough credit, in my opinion. And all of this work must be done under the radar, by legal necessity, as per an NDA. Lots of moving parts and endless details. When CEO Kelly says they are working, I believe her.
