Technica Corporation, a network systems integration firm, introduced SolantisGX, a Web-based procurement source, servicing the growing IT requirements of the federal government. SolantisGX will initially offer higher-end products generally harder to procure than those offered by traditional government web services focusing on computer workstations, desktop software and peripherals. Product categories include high-end optical and gigabit ethernet switches, anti-theft, encryption, authentication, virtual private networking, and firewall equipment. In 2003, Technica plans on adding thousands of additional products from dozens of first and second-tier product manufacturers.
The Web service features the largest government-wide acquisition contract (GWAC) available to federal agencies today. Known as SEWP III, this contract has a 10-year record of success and now one of the most popular of government contracts in existence today. In the past year, SEWP III has supplied over $1B in orders to federal agencies, predominantly defense and homeland security related, to locations worldwide. Technica Corporation was awarded a five-year SEWP III contract on September 30, 2002.
Technica Corporation was co-founded by President and CEO, Miguel Collado. Company revenue is expected to exceed $40M in 2003. Mr. Collado is a Hispanic-American who served on the U.S. Navy's USS Nimitz.
