DBSi Chosen by Scott Specialty Gases for Disaster Recovery Services
Pennsylvania Company Protects its Vital IT Infrastructure
BETHLEHEM, PA, July 27, 2004 - DBSi, a provider of comprehensive disaster recovery services, announces that it has been selected by Scott Specialty Gases to provide disaster recovery services, including multi-platform hotsite recovery, and domestic and international network backup capability.
As a worldwide producer and supplier of specialty gas products and equipment, with facilities strategically positioned throughout the United States and Europe, Scott Specialty Gases relies heavily upon its information systems infrastructure, whose loss would seriously impact business operations. In selecting DBSi for disaster recovery services, Scott Specialty Gases is provided with cross-platform server backup for IBM iSeries and Intel systems, with networking to remote locations in the United States and Europe. This equipment capability is complemented by DBSi’s recovery support team whose mission is to ensure optimal testing experiences deemed crucial in properly preparing for an actual recovery operation.
According to Bron Sheriff, vice president of management information systems for Scott Specialty Gases “DBSi allows us great flexibility in our rehearsal testing, contract terms, and other important disaster recovery program elements, which is a significant contrast to our former disaster recovery provider who was quite rigid and difficult to deal with, contractually and administratively.”
William Bachenberg, chief executive officer of DBSi, states, “We are proud to have been selected by Scott Specialty Gases as the provider of disaster recovery services for its server and network infrastructure. The fact that they are ISO 9000/9001 certified indicates that they have done a thorough job of supplier selection, and we are honored to have been chosen, and confident that our service delivery will match their expectations.”
Former customers of other disaster recovery providers, such as Scott Specialty Gases, have decided to trust DBSi for their disaster recovery needs. DBSi offers an attractive alternative to legacy suppliers of such services due to its flexible terms, test time availability, personalized support, and focus on customer requirements.
