WASHINGTON--(Business Wire)-- 3K Computers today announced the approval of their proposal to the General Services Administration (www.gsa.gov) to provide 3K branded Built-to-Order desktops, notebooks, workstations, servers, and storage appliances on a GSA Schedule 70 Contract. The first vendor to receive a Letter of Supply and Price Catalog from 3K is Boca Raton, FL based Florida Micro, LLC, and will be adding the 3K product line to their GSA Contract # GS-35F-0890N. The addition of 3K to Florida Micro's GSA Contract is the first step in providing government customers with the ability to conveniently purchase and deploy 3K IT solutions. Since 3K does not sell direct to end users, the inclusion of 3K computers on the GSA schedule is enabled by an agreement with Florida Micro, LLC, a leading government IT solutions provider headquartered in Boca Raton, FL. Florida Micro represents a select group of top tier software and hardware manufacturers including Apple, Hewlett Packard, Microsoft, Sony, and Symantec. Under the terms of this agreement, the GSA has awarded 3K's products onto the Florida Micro GSA Schedule effective immediately. "3K computers have been in high demand on the NASA SEWP IV Contract. The addition of 3K to our GSA offering will significantly increase our GSA sales since many government buyers have been requesting 3K computers, but they are limited to purchasing product from GSA Schedules. We are very excited to be working with 3K on our GSA Contract. The best part is that they are Made in America and their service and support facilities are also U.S. based," said John East, Vice President, Florida Micro, which serves as a direct marketer of best-of-breed hardware and software vendors. "We are pleased to add 3K's computer systems to our GSA schedule to address the growing demand for these extremely cost-effective, scalable and interoperable solutions." "3K provides a spill-resistant, shock-resistant, and drop-resistant semi-rugged notebook solution that costs a fraction of the price of many Panasonic Toughbook configurations that we currently offer our government clients," said John East, Vice President, Florida Micro. "With demand increasing for another quality Built-to-Order OEM computer manufacturer other than Dell, the new GSA contract makes it easier for our customers to buy and deploy the 3K solutions that they have been requesting. Florida Micro's proven track record in serving enterprise government clients and their ability to provide superior service to our government customer base makes them an ideal partner for 3K," said Dan Jacobs, CEO, 3K Computers. About 3K Computers: 3K Computers, LLC is a provider of U.S.-made, built-to-order computers, laptops, servers, workstations and storage equipment for federal, state and local governments, and the corporate and education markets. 3K customers have peace of mind in knowing that that each system is fully tested before shipment, arriving with a Certificate of Diagnostic Testing. 3K Computers also provides rapid IT response, due to its outstanding, U.S.-based, Tier 1 technical support. 3K Computers Jason Hawkins, 888-590-8215 www.3kcomputers.com Copyright Business Wire 2008
