For Immediate Release:
CCI SIGNS $2.5 MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT TO PROVIDE ASSESSMENT SOFTWARE TO DEKALB COUNTY, GA
FORT COLLINS, Colo., August 8, 2006 - Colorado CustomWare, Inc. (CCI) is excited
to announce that they have signed a contract with DeKalb County, GA, to provide
a complete assessment solution. The decision was made by a team of individuals and
was approved by the County Board of Commissioners. The individuals instrumental
in the selection process are well versed in the solutions available for assessment
officials.
"DeKalb County Georgia selected CCI for its new CAMA system primarily for three
reasons," stated Bill Lee, the Interim Chief Appraiser for DeKalb County. "They
were the most responsive to county inquires and needs. County employees who worked
on the RSP prepared an excellent detailed document that CCI responded to completely.
CCI has a system that works and we anticipate no problems if any customization is
needed."
Since 2004, CCI has been actively pursuing the Georgia market and has become very
familiar with their legislative requirements and practices. "CCI has been interested
and involved in Georgia for about two years," stated Joe Tierney, CCI's Senior Business
Analyst. "CCI has a passion to provide solutions to assessment professionals, and
we realize that doing so takes time and perseverance in building trust. We are excited
to move forward."
In addition, the timing couldn't be better. "Most of the projects we were awarded
in 2004 are near completion, and are moving towards ongoing customer support," stated
Lori Schlotter, CCI's President and CEO. "We are enthusiastic to provide DeKalb
County with an on-time and within budget assessment solution that other CCI customers
have benefited from. We hope to provide solutions to additional Georgia counties
in the near future, as many of them are experiencing high growth and need a scalable
solution like CCI's."
Since March, CCI has added five new team members and are actively recruiting for
eight additional positions. This will enable CCI to fulfill existing contracts and
ongoing customer support, while meeting the needs of future customers.
