On March 4, 2024, Dell Tech Laboratories, a WBENC certified women-owned enterprise specializing in specialty chemical compliance, regulatory affairs, and quality assurance, announced the acquisition of McCarthy Consultant Services, a move uniting two longstanding Canadian firms in the field. Under the leadership of President Jennifer Grant, who has focused on investing in her team for the past eight years, Dell Tech aims to expand its services. The transaction, which marks a significant milestone, brings together over 85 years of combined expertise to offer holistic product safety, regulatory affairs, laboratory testing, and quality assurance services to a global client network.

Stephen McCarthy, with over 20 years of industry experience, joins Dell Tech as the Director of Regulatory Affairs. He is expected to drive business development and growth while focusing on mentorship and professional development within the team. The acquisition is grounded in a shared commitment to providing best-in-class services and fostering professional growth. Founded just a year apart, with McCarthy Consultant Services by David McCarthy in 1981 and Dell Tech by Bob Dell in 1980, both companies have thrived on parallel paths for over four decades.
