Washington D.C., Sept. 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- XS International (XSi) provides cost-saving Alternative 3rd Party Global Field Maintenance Support on Cisco, Juniper, Brocade, and F5 Networks among others; including server and storage support for IBM, HP, Dell, and Oracle/Sun systems and storage. XSi was awarded another 5 year extension on their GSA IT Schedule 70 GS-35F-0751M. XSi enters its 11th year as a GSA contract holder, and their new contract period is Sep 03, 2012 to Sep 02, 2017.
"With the Obama Administration's directive to cut budgets by 10% it's quite clear why over 25 federal agencies are using our Alternative 3rd Party Maintenance," stated Todd Bone, Founder and Chairman of XS International. "Our sales team has been inundated with requests from agencies to learn more via our webinars. They want to make sure that they properly research competition to the manufacturer's costly maintenance programs in order to write RFQs that not only allow for, but encourage this competition," Bone added.
XS International has been servicing both commercial and federal agencies for over 20 years, and was also recently recognized for the 2nd year in a row as a fast growing Inc. 5000 company.
"Agencies are renewing their contracts not only for the 20-30% cost savings over OEM prices, but, because they are finding many value added benefits. They are consistently complimenting us for faster response times by our certified technicians who are U.S. based, and not outsourced overseas like most of the manufacturers call center agents. In addition, we provide maintenance on end-of-life and end-of-service products so agencies don't have to replace perfectly good equipment just because the manufacturer won't support it anymore," added Bone.
