COMSYS continues innovation with SAS® Enterprise BI ServerSAS® business intelligence technology is key to COMSYS’ industry-leading IT staffing services and specialized solutions offeringsCARY, NC (25 Aug. 2005) – As a leading provider of information technology staffing and solutions services, COMSYS Information Technology Services Inc. continually looks for ways to increase its competitive advantage. One of the latest ways COMSYS is doing this is by licensing SAS® Enterprise BI Server. After merging with Venturi IT Partners last year, COMSYS needed to migrate data from critical systems and begin functioning as one company, all while continuing to provide superior services to current and potential clients. Prior to the merger, each company had its own mix of hardware and software maintained internally. SAS Enterprise BI Server provides the common foundation to support both companies’ technologies and deliver real-time trending and predictive results necessary for the volatile services industry. “Cutting-edge technology may be a cliché term, but that’s exactly what our clients expect from COMSYS and that’s what we received from SAS Enterprise BI Server – fast, accurate, predictive information provides the competitive advantage we need,” said Mark Bierman, Senior Vice President and CIO of COMSYS. “We had an aggressive timeline to consolidate data into a corporatewide standard. As a result of our long-standing relationship with SAS, naturally we looked to their technology first – and they had exactly the power we needed to achieve our goals.” Strengthening the relationshipSAS and COMSYS have seen their relationship grow from alliance partner to reseller relationship. This latest announcement provides further proof of the strength of the relationship between COMSYS and SAS and will demonstrate the combined power of SAS technology and COMSYS services. “COMSYS is a true leader in its industry and its strategy serves its client base well,” said Don McDougall, vice president of Customer Solutions & Alliances at SAS. “SAS is pleased to support COMSYS’ success through SAS Enterprise BI Server technology and through our alliance services.” About COMSYSCOMSYS Information Technology Services Inc.
