QL2 Announces Availability on GSA IT Schedule 70 Contract

On-Demand Data Technology Provider Teams With GMP to Provide Government Agencies With Data Management Technology


SEATTLE, Aug. 17, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- QL2, the leading on-demand data technology provider, announced today the availability of QL2 products and services on GSA IT Schedule 70 Contract # GS-35F-0858N. Through a strategic partnership with Government Marketing & Procurement, LLC (GMP) - a leader in government business development and contracting - QL2 is now an approved provider of on-demand data technology to all federal, state and local government agencies.

QL2 extracts data from any digital source - whether it is a scanned image or a website - and delivers it directly to customers in a usable format. The company's Government Solutions are designed to readily retrieve information from unstructured, semi-structured and structured information sources such as archived forms and .pdf files. QL2's patented WebQL technology uses concise SQL-like constructs to automatically extract information from an unlimited number of disparate data sources and then integrates the clean data into almost any database, storage or presentation format, or internal custom application.

"Despite the availability of internal data and data across the web, government agencies struggle with finding the right data and turning it into actionable intelligent information," said Joe Austin, CEO of GMP. "We recognized that solving this problem is critical to many government initiatives and sought out the most experienced and reliable partner with the best technology platform. It quickly became clear to us that QL2's innovative approach to data intelligence along with their positive past performance made it the right solution for our customers."

"QL2 Government Solutions are capable of navigating complex data structures, extracting targeted data with a high degree of precision, then repurposing the data into an actionable format - exactly the sort of tasks that prove costly across multiple agencies," said Russ Aldrich, CEO of QL2. "The result is on-demand, manageable access to this hard-to-reach data - an immensely more efficient and effective way to manage the vast amounts of information that government agencies deal with every day."

QL2's products and services are listed on GMP's GSA IT Schedule 70 Contract # GS-35F-0858N. For more information, please visit: http://www.ql2.com, http://gmpgov.com/t-gov-gsa-ql2.aspx or http://www.gsaadvantage.gov.
