As a highly qualified vendor with a strong local presence, Total was invited to apply to be a subcontractor on Cisco’s Connecticut contract.

According to Total Communications CEO Richard Lennon, “We are thrilled to be able to offer public sector customers in Connecticut the option of working with us under the Cisco NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement. Today, public sector agencies are challenged to “do more with less” while practicing transparency in their purchasing policies. Buying through this contract addresses those challenges.”
