Clifford Consulting and Research Inc. (CCR), headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, was founded in 1988 after the invention and development of the Clifford Materials Reactivity Testing (CMRT) concept by Walter J. Clifford, who currently serves as president of CCR.
Mr. Clifford's development of the CMRT resulted in a new and unprecedented application of a well-proven technology known as the precipitin testing method. The precipitin testing method was used at the birth of microbiology nearly 100 years ago in detecting specific kinds of bacteria, and is currently employed in many laboratory tests and research efforts worldwide.

Since it's beginning, CCR has expanded the service and scope of CMRT from reporting on 1500 trade-named products and 67 chemical groups and families in its earliest reports to reporting on over 9800 trade-named products and 90 chemical groups and families today. CMRT continues to maintain strict standards and quality controls resulting in an ongoing accuracy rate of ≥ 95% with over 49,000 patients tested.

CCR's unrelenting commitment to values such as service, integrity, and innovation in promoting quality care for patients through testing and research has resulted in 22 years of rapid growth as a unique provider in the industry. CCR now offers information, services and seminars to healthcare professionals throughout the United States, as well as international locations.
