CLEVELAND, Sept. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Park Place Technologies, a single source for award-winning data center hardware maintenance and a full suite of managed services, is strengthening its Professional Services portfolio with offerings bolstered by the November 2020 acquisition of Curvature.
Park Place Professional Services delivers value-added services that complement Park Place's core hardware maintenance business. Professional Services works with clients to innovate technical solutions to IT challenges. These challenges can be centralized in a data center or distributed across the customer's IT infrastructure. As the global leader in data center maintenance, Park Place understands the client's entire IT infrastructure; adding Professional Services further simplifies "one-stop shop" access to data center needs -- saving time and money while protecting Uptime.
While Park Place previously offered several Professional Services offerings as part of its client experience portfolio, the Curvature acquisition greatly expands the depth and breadth of available services. The Curvature acquisition integrates a $34 million business that handled nearly 800 projects in 2020, encompassing 43,000 dispositioned assets, 40,000 assets deployed in North America and 3,531 Remote hands dispatches, while maintaining a 100% project Customer Satisfaction rating.
"Our dedicated team of highly trained field engineers, system engineers and project managers can help facilitate smooth IT infrastructure support operations, from basic IT tasks like IMAC to data center migrations and more," said Chris Adams, Park Place Technologies President and CEO.
