WICHITA, Kan., Jan. 6, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Advantage Outsourcing, America's onshore outsourcing solution provider, offering business process and information technology outsourcing solutions, announced today the signing of a 36 month information technology outsourcing agreement with The Opportunity Project (TOP) Early Learning Center in Wichita. The new contract is an expansion of previous IT services being provided by Advantage Outsourcing and implements one of their new Managed Services offerings: Total Enterprise Support. Under the agreement, Advantage Outsourcing will manage and operate the entire scope of IT services for two of TOP's existing schools and 1 additional school opening later in 2011.
"We are so happy to have Advantage Outsourcing as part of our team," said Bryan Bonham, Operations Director, TOP. "The overall customer service and comfort level they give us is just overwhelming. If we need anything at all they take care of it right away with an incredibly personable approach that helps us make the best decisions for our business everyday. Skip and Marc even came through for our annual Christmas for Kids holiday shoe drive! They weren't even hesitant when I asked, signing up to donate shoes even before we sent out the letter! For reasons like that I have already recommended Advantage Outsourcing to anyone that's expressed interest in IT support and will continue to do so."
"We are excited about this opportunity to expand our relationship with TOP," said Skip Womack, CEO, Advantage Outsourcing. "The services that their schools provide to the youth of our community are essential to our strength as a whole. By providing them with Total Enterprise Support, one of our new Managed Services offerings, we are committing to helping them focus exclusively on their educational services and high level care for our youth, rather then getting distracted with any technological operations. We couldn't be happier to support their success now and in the future."
