Overview

"Analytical Solutions to Analytical Problems"

Our History
ACCTA, Inc. was founded in 1993 by Dr. Merlin K. L. Bicking. The original organization offered a few training seminars and provided local consulting services. ACCTA, Inc. now offers a wide range of training options, participates at local, national, and international meetings, and provides consulting to many different industries on an international basis. Our network of affiliate consultants and laboratories means we can solve almost any problem related to chemicals, materials, processes, and/or systems.

Our Technology
Our technology is the collective knowledge and experience of our scientists and affiliate laboratories. With a strong technical background in chemical analysis, process optimization, systems development, and teaching, we can address both simple and complex technical issues. Our global approach to problem-solving centers on understanding the entire problem, and then designing a solution that meets your unique needs. We are successful because we ask questions, listen to your answers, and then work with you to develop the best solution

Our clients have a wide variety of needs and we can satisfy those needs in a variety of ways. Sometimes that need involves providing additional technical support for a critical project, or a review of important documents prior to a regulatory submission. Often we are part of a team trying to solve a multi-disciplinary problem. Other clients may need the long-term technical commitment that only ACCTA, Inc. can provide.

Consulting
Our services include technical problem-solving, document services, and other services for analytical laboratories. For more information, please visit our Consulting page.
