CHANTILLY, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Iron Bow Technologies, an information technology solutions provider, has been awarded a five year, multi-million dollar contract to provide TelePresence hardware and services to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The EPA leads the nation in environmental science, research, education and assessment efforts. Iron Bow, the Cisco 2010 U.S. and Canada Public Sector TelePresence Partner of the Year, will provide EPA constituents with Cisco TelePresence solutions designed to enable high-definition face-to-face interaction and collaboration.

“To operate effectively and accomplish its vital mission, the EPA employs a wide-ranging network of regional offices and laboratories,” said Rene LaVigne, President and CEO of Iron Bow Technologies. “Iron Bow will provide the EPA with industry leading TelePresence solutions which will facilitate effective communication and information sharing amongst their disparate office locations.”

The TelePresence suite offered will not only help the EPA increase inter-agency interaction and intra-agency communication, but also significantly reduce recurring operating costs in support of current federal budget deficit reduction initiatives. Anticipated cost savings are accomplished in a myriad of ways, including the reduction of business travel and a decrease in requisite government real estate. TelePresence solutions further support the agency's environmental initiatives by making telework possible and allowing the EPA to lower its carbon footprint.

“Iron Bow is a supporter of the implementation of green initiatives and technologies. We’re proud to bring best-of-class TelePresence solutions to the EPA that will help the agency achieve its goal of becoming more effective, efficient and environmentally-friendly,” stated LaVigne.
