CHICO CA., OCTOBER 9, 2006 – Alpheon Corporation, a Managed Service Provider for medium to large organizations, today announced that it has received accreditation under the MSPAlliance’s (MSPA) Managed Services Accreditation Program (MSAP). MSAP is the first program of its kind, specifically designed and created to provide customers of managed services providers with the assurance that the services provider they hire meets or exceeds the highest principles of quality in areas such as financial stability, facilities, managed services practices, and customer satisfaction.
“The Managed Services Accreditation Program is a rigorous program that benchmarks and verifies the quality of the company providing managed services,” said Charles Weaver, MSPAlliance president. “We are very proud to have Alpheon Corporation as a part of this prestigious body of MSPs.”
MSAP was created, using a wide base of criteria that will properly encompass a wide range of managed service providers. By covering buying and service delivery criteria that matter to customers, the MSAP certification program tracks and measures a satisfactory level of professional and business practices, helping MSPs to consistently deliver superior services to their clients.
“It is not an easy task to achieve MSAP accreditation,” said Greg Donovan, Alpheon Corporation’s president and CEO. “But it ultimately benefits both us and our customers. We earn a higher degree of trust from our clients; they know that we operate at the highest level of dependency and capability.”
