Hi there Vanessa, Thanks for evaluating the QC material and for letting me know. Totally understood on timing—happy to revisit once your validation progresses. If you have any quick feedback on what didn’t quite fit, I’d love to capture it for our team. And yes—please feel free to send your order question my way. If you can include the PO or Order #, item/lot (if applicable), and ship-to, I can jump on it right away (and loop in Support if needed).

We did evaluate the QC material, thank you for the samples. I do not think we will be moving forward with them at this time, but we are in the process of a validation and may re-evaluate again at a later date. I do have a follow-up question about a recent order. Is that something I can ask you?

I wanted to thank you again for choosing UTAK Labs for your quality control needs earlier this year. I’m reaching out to check in and see how your most recent QC materials have been performing for your team. If you have any feedback—positive or areas where we might improve—I’d greatly value your insights. Additionally, if you anticipate upcoming needs for replenishment or would like to explore other QC solutions (toxicology, chemistry, genetics, or custom panels), we’d be glad to help ensure you have the right materials in place. Please let me know if there’s a good time to connect, or if there’s someone else on your team who’d be best to coordinate with.
