SALT LAKE CITY, UT and ROCHESTER, NY, April 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CallTower, a global leader in delivering cloud-based enterprise-class unified communications, contact center and collaboration solutions, today announced their awarding of US GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule in association with their Federal Government Strategic partner Team Consulting, Inc. (TCI).
The GSA Schedule, also known as Federal Supply Schedule, and Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), is a long-term governmentwide contract with commercial companies that provide access to millions of commercial products and services at reasonable prices to the government. This contract will save potential CallTower government customers time and money through pre-negotiated pricing and simplified government subcategorization and Special Item Number (SINs) coding.
The GSA Schedule gives customers access to a streamlined acquisition process for obtaining services through a Government Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC). In addition, TCI’s SBA 8(a) certification small business program allows federal government customers sole source contracts up to $4.5 Million. This will drastically speed up the technology implementation timeline and reduce customers’ procurement lifecycle.
“GCC High Direct Conferencing will help our Federal Government clients meet the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandated M-22-09 requirement to move towards a Federal Zero-Trust Architecture (ZTA) and data encryption standards,” explained TCI CEO Bruce Hargrave. “GCC High will fully comply with the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program at FedRAMP High and the security controls and control enhancements for United States Department of Defense Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide (SRG) for information up to Impact Level 5 (L5).”
“We are incredibly excited to be awarded a GSA schedule in order to provide our government customers with a smooth and streamlined purchasing experience,” said William Rubio, CallTower’s Chief Revenue Officer. “We know that this will open the door for many new organizations to experience the enterprise-class UCaaS and CCaaS solutions and support that only CallTower can offer.”
