Blue Hill Cloud Services are now available for purchase on the G2G Marketplace, allowing public sector entities to more easily and knowledgeably make smart technology decisions. Chief Operating Officer of Blue Hill, John M. Lalli, believes that "when government utilizes Blue Hill's services, capital expenses are minimized or eliminated, operating expenses are reduced, and critical systems are supported seamlessly. The partnership is very important as the G2G Marketplace enables us to extend benefits to help government run efficiently and cost effectively."
The G2G Marketplace offers free membership to all public entities, and provides pre-negotiated simplified agreements, fast procurement, and reduced prices and cost recovery. This initiative eliminates the need for a lengthy RFP process, and provides an efficient way for public sector technology buyers to research and utilize already competitively bid solutions, thereby saving government's time and money while also using taxpayer dollars wisely.
Phil Bertolini, Chief Information Officer, Oakland County, says that Blue Hill "helped Oakland County achieve substantial savings while ensuring that critical systems operate seamlessly. We hope public agencies can take advantage of this streamlined way of achieving success. Government is meant to provide, serve, and help our citizens overcome obstacles, and create and share technology solutions that are cost effective and make operating easier and less time consuming, thereby benefiting everyone."
Lalli understands that "Our government customers all face the same challenges: being forced to manage legacy systems efficiently, while running the risk of losing critical staff due to retirement. We are honored to be part of the G2G Marketplace, which will help members reduce their IT operating expenses while continuing to run best-in-class service levels."
L. Brooks Patterson, Oakland County Executive, "G2G Marketplace is changing the way governments purchase technology and services. Oakland County is leading the way in helping governments of all sizes."
The G2G Marketplace's success includes being named as a finalist in Harvard University's 2017 Innovation in American Government Awards Competition out of five hundred applications throughout the United States.
