“SoftWright will continue to develop RF software tools for the radio telecom industry,” says Burkholder. “The former owners, Larry D. Ellis, P.E. and Michael L. Wiebe, P.E., will continue to be involved in the company in the immediate future and we are thrilled that Mr. Curt Alway will remain at the helm of the sales program for the foreseeable future. Customers can expect the same level of personal attention, training, and support that has long been the practice of the company.” Burkholder is being joined on the development and management team by newcomers John J. Reilly and Dr. Todd A. Summers.
