WASHINGTON, D.C., December 18, 2002 - Advanced DataTools Corporation,
a woman-owned small business and leading provider of web-enabled
database and data warehouse solutions, announced today its award
of a 5-year Federal Supply Schedule Contract (#GS-35F-0194N) from
the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). As a result, the
northern Virginia-based consulting firm can now more easily offer
its services to all branches of the Federal government through the
GSA's array of Information Technology offerings.
“As customers and users are demanding better and faster database
solutions and front-end applications, this contract will enable
us to offer our consulting expertise, software we recommend, and
our complete system-building solution to government agencies,”
says Lester Knutsen, President and Principal Consultant of Advanced
DataTools. “With the recent award-winning projects we've done
for our current government clients, BLM and FSA, it's really exciting
to be able to offer our services on a wider basis.”
GSA's Federal Supply Service provides federal customers with the
products, services, and programs to meet their supply, service,
procurement, vehicle purchasing and leasing, travel and transportation,
and personal property management requirements. Inclusion of Advanced
DataTools' services in the GSA schedule will allow GSA to enhance
its current information technology offerings with new solutions
for web-enabled database applications, IBM Informix and DB2 consulting
and support services, and Brio Software products, services, support,
and training.
Advanced DataTools services include team-driven database design,
Brio, Informix, and QIQ consulting, and both public and customized
training. Advanced DataTools' skill and experience in database design
enables government agencies to leverage funds and resources and
better track expenditures and performance on a daily basis, rather
than waiting 3 to 6 months for outdated reports. Advanced DataTools
builds integrated and web-enabled financial and performance reporting
data warehouse solutions, as well as front-end applications such
as GIS mapping of data and on-line transaction processing systems,
and provide extensive training to support their products of choice.
Advanced DataTools's services are currently employed by various
government agencies including the US Forest Service, the USDA Farm
Service Agency and Rural Development, the Department of Interior
Bureau of Land Management, and the Social Security Administration.
The U.S. General Services Administration is a centralized federal
procurement and property management agency created by Congress to
improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve
the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space,
equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies
and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services
and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal
workers located in more than 8,000 government-owned and leased buildings
