This is the DD most of you did not do. For those of you that did, this is in your honor.
FACT #1 Thursday May 28, 11:06 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Infocall Wins Federal Government Subcontract to Supply Staffing Services To State Department VIENNA, Va., May 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Infocall Communications Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: INFE - news) an emerging leader in Internet-based Staffing and Employee Leasing services today announced the Company has been named as the subcontractor for a Department of State staffing program by Milvets, Inc. an 8(a) minority owned contractor based in Lanham, Maryland.
The initial contract value is $3 million over a 5 year period, with ''open end'' provisions for expansion during each contract year with an estimated value of $10-$15 million with future modifications. .
Through the program, Infocall and Milvets will provide contract employees to the State Department for positions in the U.S. and abroad. A special high- security computer system and personnel database has been designed and deployed by Milvets as a key component of this program.
According to Infocall's CEO, Tom Richfield, ''We expect this unique program to become extremely popular in the State Department, and likely to attract the attention of other government agencies. Just as personnel outsourcing has become common practice in the private sector, we see the U.S. Government becoming one of the largest users of contract staffing, especially with pending Year 2,000 (Y2K) compliance issues.'' -snip-
Y2K?? Is this a big deal? You tell me. READ THIS FACT:
Estimates place correcting the problem for businesses and the public sector in the United States alone between $100-$200 billion. If you accept the premise that the total information technology services marketplace in America approaches $150 billion annually; that means Year 2000 Software Conversion could represent anywhere from 33%-50% of dollars spent for information systems in one year. Some ITAA Year 2000 Task Group members report estimates placing the worldwide total to correct the problem between $300 and $600 billion. -snip- GOOD MARKET EH? The "Gub-ment" ain't a bad client to have either. Anyone out there know what an 8(a) status means? I do. It means gold. Look it up.

What is OUTSOURCING/STAFFING?
Outsourcing is the strategic use of outside resources to perform activities traditionally handled by internal staff and resources. Outsourcing is a management strategy by which an organization outsources major, non-core functions to specialized, efficient service providers. Companies have always hired special contractors for particular types of work, or to level-off peaks and valleys in their workload. They have always partnered-formed long-term relationships with firms whose capabilities complement their own; companies have always contracted for shared access to resources that were beyond their individual reach-whether it be buildings, technology or people. But the difference with simply subcontracting and outsourcing is that outsourcing involves the wholesale restructuring of the corporation around core competencies and outside relationships.
Top 10 reasons companies outsource (in alphabetical order) 1. Accelerate reengineering benefits 2. Access to world class capabilities 3. Cash infusion 4. Free resources for other purposes 5. Function difficult to manage or out of control 6. Improve company focus 7. Make capital funds available 8. Reduce operating costs 9. Reduce risk 10. Resources not available internally
