SiteVision Hosting Services Renewed for Virginia Commonwealth Agencies and Localities

ROANOKE, Va. - May 25, 2015 - PRLog -- SiteVision’s Hosting Services and Software as a Service contract has been renewed by the Virginia Information Technologies Agency (VITA) for an additional year.  The contract is part of Virginia’s electronic government services program (eGov) and includes all state agencies and local government entities. The firm has also been certified as a SWaM Micro-business certified by the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity.

SiteVision is authorized to provide Web Application Vulnerability Scanning (WAVS), and offers a cost-effective solution to discover, analyze and provide reporting on website application vulnerability – a vital technology in response to intensive and widespread intrusion threats. Remediation solutions are also available.

“We are very pleased to continue as a provider for advanced hosting and related technologies,” said Patrick Maddox, CEO of SiteVision, Inc. “Our hosting and technology teams are always ready to help state and local bodies achieve a smooth transition of existing services, or to help with any new services that might be required.”

The stated objectives of the VITA contracts are to modernize the Commonwealth’s procurements and provide enhanced value to the state, greater transparency, broader participation by multiple suppliers, and cost-effective access to best-of-class technology services.

The original contract awards followed in-depth, multi-agency evaluations of responses to VITA’s requests for proposals (RFPs) for eGov services. Awards were based upon demonstrated, measurable benefit to the Commonwealth and contract users. VITA is the Commonwealth’s central information technology (IT) agency. VITA’s statewide contracts can be accessed and utilized by all public entities, including Virginia counties, cities, towns, agencies, educational institutions and public safety providers. The current renewal is effective through April, 2016.
