Enterasys and ISOCORP recently strengthen their partnership relationship by having ISOCORP become one of only a few hand selected firms to provide professional services nationwide. Under new leadership Enterasys has experienced tremendous growth and success by posting nine consecutive quarters of pro-forma operating profitability. These results do not reflect any purchase accounting adjustments that may be applied related to the Company’s acquisition in March 2006 by a group of private investors led by The Gores Group, LLC, and Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC. Enterasys attributes its positive momentum as customers, partners and prospects invested in Secure Networks hardware, software and services to protect the confidentiality, integrity, availability and performance of IT services and the business users that rely on them. 2007 third quarter revenue increased nearly 17% sequentially and more than 10% over the same period in 2006, while gross margins remained strong at greater than 50%. This growth has led to the need for additional subcontractor services from valued, long-standing partners such as ISOCORP. ISOCORP is hopeful that this new relationship extends globally in the near future.

Additionally, a department-wide document management system will provide the Department with the ability to capture information electronically early in the licensing process and make information/documentation readily available to all stakeholders; will help ensure compliance with records retention schedules and public records laws; the physical location of records will no longer be significant; in a disaster the department will have access to documents; and information/documentation will be readily available and retrievable in response to audit requests.

The scope of the work associated with this project is to implement OnBase, the software product that has been selected by the Department to develop a department-wide document management system. This is a multi-year phased project contingent upon continued funding by the Florida Legislature. Tasks associated with this project will include, but are not limited to, validating the hardware and software recommended by Hyland Software, Inc., to implement the system; validating existing and proposed DBPR functional design documents and process workflows; designing, building and implementing the document management system for the department over three phases.
