A2U GAINS PHILADELPHIA IT CONSULTING GROUP,
EXPANDS RESOURCES IN EASTERN PA
This expansion will further A2U’s footprint in verticals across the state, specifically healthcare.
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (March 20th 2017) – Today, Unified Medical Solutions (UMed), a Philadelphia-based IT consulting group, joins A2U.
With this new partnership, A2U gains a new CTO, David Holdan. Holdan is the former CEO of UMed and a 25-year veteran in healthcare IT.
David Holdan, new A2U CTO
Under Holdan’s leadership at UMed, his innovative healthcare end-point solution, UCare was implemented in some of the Mid-Atlantic’s largest healthcare systems. UMed partnered with leading, end-point and virtualization vendors and was RES Software’s first healthcare-focused partner in the U.S. after RES entered the country in 2009.
“Holdan is a visionary in healthcare IT. We’re excited to leverage his unparalleled expertise and build upon our already-strong footing in the healthcare vertical. It’s great to know our customers will benefit from this added knowledge joining our team today,” said Dan Dillman, CEO, A2U.
Dillman says A2U currently serves IT consulting customers in Western PA, throughout the state and the region. However, this new agreement allows the company to expand resources in Eastern PA to better meet the growing demands of that region.
“It’s a win-win for both companies. By joining A2U, UMed customers will benefit from more engineers and technical staff; access to cloud services; access to 24/7/365 IT support; and Cisco, Citrix, VMWare, IGEL and RES Software Platinum Partner-grade service,” said new A2U CTO, David Holdan.
While Holdan will be serving customers throughout the region, he will be based in the Philadelphia-area. Starting this week, Holdan will oversee A2U’s IT services and work closely with customers to build solutions.
“Today marks an exciting new chapter for our company as we continue to grow our business and expand valuable technical resources,” said Dillman.
A2U leadership says welcoming UMed customers and David Holdan into the community just seemed like a natural fit and progression for Pittsburgh’s fastest-growing technology company.
This announcement comes on the heels of A2U’s recent achievement of being named a finalist for the Pittsburgh Business Ethics Award. The company is planning a second announcement later this week.
