<br />COMPANY PROJECT NARRATIVE <br /> <br />Description should include but not be limited to: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />a. Company History. <br /> <br />Guidant is a world leader in the design and development of cardiovascular medical products. <br />Guidant's devices help patients with heart disease return to active and productive lives by <br />providing physicians with leading-edge technologies for improved patient management and <br />clinical outcomes. Guidant has also created a culture in which employees, investors and our <br />communities share in our success. <br /> <br />Guidant was incorporated in 1994, and since has grown to $3.2 billion in revenue and more <br />than 11,000 employees. Corporate headquarters are in Indianapolis, with major operations <br />in California, Minnesota, Texas, Washington, Puerto Rico and Ireland. Guidant's products <br />are distributed by a sales force recognized throughout the industry for its clinical expertise <br />and customer service. <br /> <br />Although a young organization, Guidant's four business groups have established track <br />records in their markets. Their structure provides the resources of a large organization, while <br />preserving the innovative and entrepreneurial environment of a smaller company. The <br />business groups stay close to the customer and respond quickly to evolving needs. They <br />advance Guidant's mission of providing leading-edge technology for physicians and life- <br />saving therapy for patients. <br /> <br />The primary business group located in Arden Hills is the Cardiac Rhythm Management <br />Group (CRM Group). The CRM group develops therapies to treat a range of irregular <br />heartbeats. The division currently produces some of the smallest, most technologically <br />advanced pacemakers available. In 1985, CRM also developed the first implantable <br />cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) to treat dangerously fast heart rhythms. The division continues <br />to be a market leader in ICD development. The CRM group also has operations in <br />Redmond Washington and Dorada, Puerto Rico. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />b.
