The Casey Group, Inc., an experienced provider of IT development and outsourcing solutions to Fortune 500 and mid-sized companies, today announced that it has formed a partnership with AccessIT, a leading provider of value-added, managed storage services, to offer businesses highly functional, bottom-line driven data storage solutions. The partnership will enable both The Casey Group's and AccessIT's customers to launch new revenue-generating applications quickly and cost effectively in a managed, hosted environment.

The proliferation of data and bandwidth-intensive applications, along with a need for more robust business continuity plans, in today's enterprises has led many companies to integrate managed storage services (MSS) into their overall business strategy. Companies traditionally have implemented MSS and other application hosting services in order to focus on their core businesses. But as competition and financial uncertainty increase within their markets, those companies are looking to MSS to provide a competitive advantage in addition to operational efficiencies.

Working together, The Casey Group and AccessIT will help clients develop and deploy advanced software applications that can optimize a client's existing application or help clients generate revenue opportunities through new products and services. These applications can be deployed in AccessIT's carrier class Internet data-centers utilizing AccessIT's managed storage services and managed by The Casey Group.

"Together with AccessIT, The Casey Group is well-positioned to reshape the Data Center and MSS marketplace," said Rich Casey, CEO and founder of The Casey Group. "With the proper IT development resources in place, companies can streamline applications that are being hosted and managed by AccessIT. With that operational efficiency, they can enhance any application, from billing and CRM systems to supply chain and database management solutions. Companies will be able to use MSS solutions to increase sales and profit potential, reduce product or service time-to-market, and optimize existing applications," said Casey.

"The Casey Group, with our proven ability to deliver business-driven IT solutions to our customers, will be able to support AccessIT's customers and their hosted applications. I'm pleased to be partnering with a capable, innovative company like AccessIT," said Casey.

"Our partnership with The Casey Group reaffirms our commitment to bring our customers the highest levels of value- added managed services," said A. Dale Mayo, Chairman, president and CEO, of AccessIT. "AccessIT is a proven leader in the Internet Data Center, MSS and data storage industries; with this partnership, we're making a clear statement that our MSS program is more than an operational necessity; it can be a real business growth-driver," said Mayo.
