Logicalis Earns HP 2010 Healthcare Elite
Partner Designation
Who: Logicalis, Inc.,
an international provider of integrated information and
communications technology (ICT) solutions and services, has
achieved HP PartnerONE Healthcare Elite status.
What: Logicalis has
been a healthcare solution provider for more than a decade,
delivering solutions for award-winning healthcare organizations
such as Northshore University Healthsystems, Lehigh Valley Hospital
and Montgomery General Hospital to name only a few. Now
Logicalis has added HP PartnerONE Healthcare Elite status to its
healthcare practice credentials.
HP introduced its PartnerONE Healthcare Elite
program in May 2010 to help provide partners with a platform from
which to highlight their expertise to customers. The
designation has been well received in the marketplace, as customers
have an easier way of identifying HP partners, like Logicalis, who
have expertise in healthcare solutions.
HP PartnerONE Healthcare Elite partners employ
experienced professionals whose dedication, industry knowledge and
IT specialization help them assess clients’ specific business needs
and provide tailored solutions to meet them.
Logicalis Quote: “Billions of
dollars in stimulus funds for hospitals and other healthcare
organizations that achieve meaningful use of electronic health
record (EHR) technology by 2011 under the 2009 American
Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) is driving a whole new set
of solution providers into the market,” says Karen Burton,
Logicalis’ Healthcare Business Development Manager.
“Healthcare organizations need to be able to tell who has the
experience and skills needed to help them make the right decisions
about all their healthcare-related technology needs. The HP
Healthcare Elite Partner designation recognizes partners that have
invested in the healthcare industry. We are proud to include
this designation in our healthcare credentials and to
have been this kind of business partner to HP and to our healthcare
clients long before ARRA made healthcare ‘the place to be.’”
HP Quote: "HP
PartnerONE Healthcare Elite partners, like Logicalis, are
experienced in designing, installing and supporting healthcare
solutions that can have an immediate impact on customers'
businesses and people's lives," says Mike Humke, vice president,
Public Sector, Solution Partners Organization - Americas, HP.
"We're pleased to recognize Logicalis as a valued partner in
leading with and delivering HP technologies and services to
organizations in the healthcare segment."
