The Government of Ontario Selects Zylog as a Vendor of Record

Zylog is selected by Ontario Government as Vendor of Record for Solutions-Based I&IT Services

Zylog Systems (Ottawa) Ltd has been selected as a Vendor of Record (VOR) for the Government of Ontario in both task-based and solutions-based information and information technology services.

“Gaining VOR status with the Ontario Government for Solutions Based I&IT Services is a great compliment to our existing task-based Vendor of Record status. Zylog can provide unique and innovative solutions to the Provincial Government on a broader scale, with highly competitive rates, and with a wider variety of delivery methodologies,” said John Mehrmann, CEO of Zylog Systems (Canada) Ltd.

In addition Mr. Mehrmann notes “This type of pre-qualification allows Zylog to work more closely with key public sector organizations to drive innovation, improve citizen services, and save time and money”.

The Ontario Government allows qualified organizations to apply to become a VOR every three years. Gaining this status allows broader public sector organizations, including municipalities and services organizations, to approach the vendors directly in a three bid system.

The solutions-based Vendor of Record list is only for elite companies. Qualifying vendors are required to have delivered projects in excess of $5 million in value that require specialized skills in a variety of technologies.

Zylog has successfully provided task-based services to Provincial and Federal Government, demonstrating the highest levels of commitment and quality. Zylog now has the opportunity to participate with bids and proposals for solutions.
