apacity Project Scope The Pittsburgh VA is transitioning from artisan-dependent prosthesis fabrication to computer-aided prosthesis fabrication within the Dental Clinic and implementation of this transition within the end of the year will be necessary to avoid major reductions in treatment capacity. The PrograMill PM7 or an equal milling machine has to be compatible with the 3Shape Complete Restorative digital dental software that Pittsburgh is using to keep this service in-house. The PrograMill s front panel has a visual user interface. Pittsburgh s Dental Clinic uses e.max ceramic that Ivoclar manufcatures, and only a handful of mills are certified by Ivoclar to machine this material. Our in-house dental lab stocks Ivoclar s Ivocolor and e.max Ceram, which are supplemental Ivoclar ceramic materials used to color and add to Ivoclar ceramics. The Dental Clinic intends on milling ceramics made by Ivoclar such as ZirCAD Prime Zirconia, the use of the PM7 mill along with the pre-existing and planned Ivoclar ceramic products ensures that we are using compatible materials. This enables them to get meaningful support from Ivoclar if there is an issue in the chain of materials.

Value counts new single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling (same contract, or the same office, day and amount); that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Contract modifications are not new awards and are not added in either. Notices whose amount is a placeholder such as $999,999,999 are not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings.
