Alicat Scientific Case Study
Alicat Scientific partnered with CIENCE to build an exhaustive prospect list and run targeted outbound campaigns across the vacuum deposition and biopharma industries in Europe and North America. CIENCE delivered research, email templates, and phone scripts—completing the project ahead of schedule. Alicat met every campaign target set at the start and accelerated both market investigation and product launch activities.

Challenges & Scope
ICP: Vacuum Deposition Equipment, Physical Vapor Deposition, and Atomic Layer Deposition Companies in Europe and North America.
Product: Custom Mass Flow Controllers.
CIENCE Technologies coordinates the lead generation efforts for Alicat Scientific. After researching appropriate industries and clients, they conduct cold email and phone outreach campaigns.

Why CIENCE
“Their ability to do targeted research stood out” – Bernard M. Chaudoir, Market Manager.
Alicat Scientific did not have a good list of customers and prospects. They wanted to generate an exhaustive list of ideal engineering clients and cultivate new leads. Bernard M. Chaudoir, Market Manager, had coordinated successfully with CIENCE in a previous capacity and decided to re-engage to satisfy Alicat’s needs.
“They generated the desired list for us with speed and accuracy and implemented a lead generation campaign,” says Chaudoir. “They researched the biopharma space and found appropriate target names and contact info for us.” The team at CIENCE wrote email templates and phone scripts to start sales conversations with Alicat’s ideal customers.
“Their research and targeting ability is top-notch,’ Chaudoir says. “Discussion, collaboration, and work ethic are all on point.”
Results
Alicat worked with the CIENCE team to optimize their campaigns in an industry space where targeting is difficult. “The workflow was great,” says Bernard M. Chaudoir, Market Manager. “We were in contact as required and had weekly coordinated meetings. They completed the project ahead of schedule. Our project manager was terrific.”
Despite the challenges penetrating the physical vapor and atomic level deposition industry, Alicat found the outreach conducted by CIENCE to be a success. “We ultimately met the #’s that we laid out at the start,” says Chaudoir. “CIENCE helped us accelerate market investigation and product launch activities.”
