ers are counting this next project as a sure bet. “It’s an exciting new venture for us,” said Rachel Peterson, who hopes to have the shop operational by the third quarter. “By hiring new technicians and expanding our capabilities, we’ll truly be a one-stop shop.” Even with its recent success, QAS still faces hurdles. “The biggest challenge we face right now is expansion into new markets,” Rachel Peterson said. “We need to stay on top of our capabilities and pricing, not to mention expand our capabilities in this everchanging industry, and tailor them to the needs of our customers. “We’ve added new capabilities and invested in more test equipment. This will enable us to expand what we are capable of doing, help us keep up with the changing technology in aviation and ensure QAS is more versatile in the aviation industry. “Ultimately, our primary goal is to provide dependable customer service and quality work at a competitive price. Everything we do, all the steps we’re taking, supports that goal.” q
