The concept, contract, build and completion of the ABSL3 facility was undertaken and completed by CERTEK on a very tight timeline and limited budget to meet the needs brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. CERTEK stepped up when other vendors were unable to meet the requirements and developed a remarkably efficient design, completed the construction meeting timeline and budget requirements, and have provided consistent and reliable support through all steps of certification and maintenance. I could not be more pleased with their work or enthusiastic in my recommendation to others of their work.

Tim and his crew came in as scheduled and decontaminated our BSL3 lab in a professional manner. Work was completed on time. We will be using CERTEK in September to decontaminate the same lab, (annual). Would highly recommend CERTEK for similar work.

I would like to thank CERTEK for your efforts and cooperation with regard to the installation of the BL3 modular laboratory you fabricated for us. From a physical plant perspective not only were we impressed with the lab installation itself, but also, your efforts in resolving the problem conditions that arose. As you know, the problem with the steam generating unit proved to be a tricky one to trouble shoot; but with your efforts and input, the problem condition was resolved and corrected! It was most encouraging to experience this type of cooperation and resolve to ensure the unit functioned properly.

I am writing in the capacity of a very pleased scientist to commend CERTEK for a job well done in the BSL-3 and RDTE containment laboratory structure you fabricated for us. The building is well designed and constructed, and it has operated very well since installation. Government program inspectors also have remarked on the quality of the building. I appreciate the way that you worked with us to design this unit, installed it properly and brought it up to operation. I highly recommend your company to other scientist needing a high quality prefabricated laboratory.

As a follow up from our phone conversation, I'd like to offer a retrospective view of MRI's modular BSL-3 project. As we near the first anniversary of operating in our modular BSL-3 laboratory, I (as well as several others in our group) have had some time to think about our overall satisfaction of our project. Since we are now settled into the lab, we can look back at why we made certain decisions and consider whether we would make the same decisions again. As you know, while the actual construction process proceeded fairly quickly, MRI spent a lot of time on this project, much of it before your organization became involved. Read More

CERTEK in general are consummate professionals and have provided us at SRI a beautiful end product. Tim, your lead on this project and your 'will do' attitude faced with adversity were 15 on a scale of 1-10. Again, THANKS!
