FUTURE TECH WINS VAR of the YEAR Award:

Honored for its Business Ingenuity and Strategic Vision

 

HOLBROOK, N.Y., Dec. 5, 2005: Future Tech Enterprise, Inc . – Future Tech Enterprise, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has received the 2005 VAR of the Year award from CMP Media's VARBusiness, the industry's leading publication serving the IT Solution Provider community. Future Tech was awarded the VAR of the Year award within the category of Business Ingenuity. As defined by VARBusiness, this award went to the Solution Provider who displayed the most ingenious and innovative business strategy overall for the past year.

This category proved to be the most competitive among all the applicants, with a veritable Who's Who within the VAR500 Community throwing their hats into the ring for the highly coveted award. In the end, Future Tech was awarded the honor based on multiple programs and strategies that were deployed throughout the year, with both its uniquely-executed push into Managed Services as well as its Insource America Help Desk program being highly lauded by both the industry and Editors at VARBusiness.

With over 41 percent of VARs saying their firms now offer some form of managed services, Future Tech truly stood out with its creation of the east coast's first Structurally Secure Disaster Recovery Data Center, which offers over a dozen managed services offerings, all within a six-sided enclosed structure that is designed to withstand every possible catastrophe including floods, fire, bombs and other threats.

“Our strategy was to introduce new practices and offerings that complemented our existing competencies and resources to create a true synergy,” said Bob Venero, President and CEO of Future Tech Enterprise, Inc. “We have been able to take our Insource America Help Desk program to the next level and in doing so we've provided Corporate America with a fiscally viable alternative to offshore outsourcing and at the same time create a foundation for our Managed Services offerings.”

In concert with the $2 million Technology Solution Center Future Tech built last year, their new Disaster Recovery Data Center offers customers the most comprehensive portfolio of solutions, spanning hardware, software and services. In deference to the true “value add” suggested by the term Value Added Reseller, Future Tech developed its own solution for customers to manage the contracts and leases associated with their IT assets – ContractOne™. ContractOne has proven to be one of the most singularly effective tools in Future Tech's arsenal when competing for business. The cost savings associated with the use of this application has extended their reach into organizations to include engaging at the CIO level with respect to compliance issues and the CFO level in terms of its secondary but equally strategic use as a fiscal planning/forecasting tool with respect to IT budget preparation.

Future Tech's integrated approach to providing value to their customers has made this Future Tech's most profitable year to date and extended their reach into new markets and new territories across North America . Among the VAR community, Future Tech has demonstrated an uncanny ability to develop true best practices and then successfully deploy these winning strategies across various vertical markets, making them a trusted and coveted IT partner for both commercial, government and education customers. With a comprehensive portfolio of solutions and a corporate roadmap that may very well re-define strategic vision for business growth, Future Tech is well positioned to continue in its role of industry leader and technical innovator.
