Posted on: Monday, 14 August 2006, 15:00 CDT

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- En Pointe Technologies, Inc. , a leading national provider of Information Technology (IT) products and services, announces it has again been awarded one of several Information Technology Solutions contracts with the State of Minnesota.

"En Pointe is positioned as a 'Full Service' technology vendor for the State of Minnesota. Because of the inherent complexities of managing multiple service level agreements under one contract, the State of Minnesota was looking for companies who had a proven record of delivering both hardware and software as well as managed services, under one umbrella, at competitive rates. En Pointe was one of the clear choices," stated Dave Mochalski, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for En Pointe. "Their decision to award us a 'Full Service' IT Contract testifies to En Pointe's ability to serve State customers' needs."

Under the terms of this agreement, En Pointe will provide information technology solutions products and services (Computer Hardware, Software, Maintenance and Technical Services) to the State of Minnesota. This encompasses over 1,100 entities, including state agencies, counties, cities, school districts, and higher education. In addition to Minnesota, En Pointe has been providing IT products and services to other state and local governments over the past thirteen years.

"We are very pleased with our continuing relationship with the State of Minnesota," said Bob Din, CEO of En Pointe. "We believe this second win demonstrates En Pointe's ability to meet the varied needs of the state, county and local agencies and school districts throughout Minnesota. Our local sales and service personnel have developed a strong working relationship with State of Minnesota personnel, one which we hope will continue well into the future."
