As you all know, our country was subjected to a 35-day government shutdown that impacted many Federal programs, and companies. Fortunately, the programs that we serve were either already funded or were deemed to be critical in nature so our team was unaffected. However, we continue to monitor the situation as we move into February with more congressional talks and legislation on the table that could affect any one of our programs beginning February 15, 2019. We will keep you posted if there are any potential impacts.
As noted in our last newsletter, we continued our year-over-year growth in 2018 and the outlook for 2019 appears just as promising with new programs, and customer’s, under pursuit. Near term, our Jacksonville team will be expanding in March. Construction for our expanded Corporate Sales office in the World Trade Center will begin shortly with an anticipated move-in date of June 1, 2019. Our Operations office will be expanding as well in the near future.
As we look to build our customer portfolio, we have hired a consulting firm to help us get on the IT Schedule 70 government vehicle which is in very basic terms a directory of approved suppliers that the government can use to shop for services where pricing and reputation have already been vetted. This month, we are embarking on adding our Joint Venture, Innovative Data Partners (IDP) , onto IT Schedule 70 as well so that we can pursue more opportunities with our partner T-Rex Solutions, LLC.
In short, we have a lot of promising work ahead of us but the results are borne from the efforts that each of you put into the roles you currently serve. The skills, reputation, attitude, performance and results that each of us brings to the table each and every day is the secret ingredient that will enable our continued growth, opening up the door for more personal and company opportunities. Thank you for the goodwill you create and for being good ambassadors.
