Data Applications Corporation Enters Public Sector, Managed Services Arena

Veteran DFW Area IT Services Firm to Help Local Companies Reduce Network Downtime and Increase Employee Productivity

ADDISON, TX (August, 7 2006)…. Data Applications Corporation (DAC), a provider of desktop and network services for government agencies, today announces that it will offer remote managed services to the public sector.

“We have been helping government agencies maintain a high level of productivity through technology for more than 15 years. When you consider that government agencies work on bids, we can offer small and mid-sized companies cost effective technology solutions very easily,” said Rich Kaeufer, president of DAC. “The services we offer are great for small to mid-sized companies that anticipate future growth.”

Though DAC can offer its services to any company from 10 to 250 computer users, it has plans to focus on vertical markets such as private sector education, law firms, engineering firms and real estate.

Most broadly defined, remote managed services is a method by which a third party can help a company become more proactive, even predictive, in terms of technology to keep a company productive by limiting network down time. However, managed services goes beyond the scope of preventing failure and allows companies to utilize technology to foster growth and anticipate problems that arise with adding new people and additional hardware.

“Advances in technology allow the smaller companies to have the same benefits of what only the Fortune 500 companies could enjoy in the late 90’s or even a few years ago,” Kaeufer added. “Additionally, DAC can monitor a company’s network from our site, reducing travel time and other costs associated with being on site.”

The core of DAC’s service offering is DACtracsm, a totally integrated IT monitoring solution that enables mid-tier organizations to monitor the availability, performance and security of their networks, systems and applications via a single Web Dashbord.

Though DAC focuses on network and desktop support, the company can serve as a single point of technology for its clients through partnerships in areas such as database administration, Web development, disaster recovery, business intelligence services, and CRM solutions.
