Cloud Webhosting Services
Reston, Virginia
– 29 March 2013 - Smartronix wins BPA Contract Award
from Department of The Treasury for Public Cloud Webhosting
Services
Smartronix announced today that it received a
contract award for a Blanket Purchase Order (BPA) and an initial
task order from the Department of the Treasury for the
continuation and expansion of the Treasury Community Cloud
Webhosting solution. The BPA represents a flexible, scalable
vehicle that will enable the Office of the Chief Information
Officer, Enterprise Business Solutions (EBS) to provide a wide
array of Web services across the entire Department of the
Treasury consisting of the main Treasury and its Bureaus.
This award will extend the work Smartronix began
in 2010 on the refresh of the Treasury.gov Website and migration
to a Microsoft SharePoint platform running on the Amazon Web
Services AWS Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). To meet the expanded
requirements of the Department of the Treasury, Smartronix
established a team featuring best-in-class organizations,
including AWS, Microsoft, Synteractive, CoreSphere, and TMP
Government. This team has an exceptional track record of
delivering world-class cloud solutions to Federal customers,
facilitating shared services enablement and demonstrating
service delivery excellence.
Under this award, Smartronix will continue to
provide the Department of the Treasury with secure, scalable,
and managed Webhosting services, including cloud hosting,
content delivery, content management, and security and service
desk support in a FISMA moderate compliant environment. We also
will facilitate the ability to extend these services to a cadre
of the Department’s customers and other agencies, significantly
expanding its portfolio of Web properties running in the cloud.
As a Government-wide shared services provider, Treasury will be
able to contractually onboard new Web properties into their
community cloud offering, thereby reducing costs and
streamlining the procurement of cloud services.
"We are proud to be selected to continue our work
providing a secure, scalable cloud solution for the Department
of the Treasury’s public facing Websites," states Joseph
Gerczak, Smartronix Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer. "We embrace the opportunity to help Treasury gain
economies of scale utilizing the public cloud to deliver
efficient shared services that will ultimately reduce cost of
Government to the taxpayer."
