PEAK, which has been the largest Symbol reseller for the last five years, was the first Symbol partner to be certified in both Spectrum24 Implementation Services and Symbol Wireless Switch Design and Implementation Services. PEAK is now officially certified under the new program to provide site surveys, coverage studies, physical network design, and installation for both switched and unswitched Symbol 802.11b wireless LANs. “We are very enthused about PEAK’s certification because its national and international organization gives them a unique ability to deliver a turnkey solution, including professional services, hardware and software to large multi-site companies,” said Arthur O’Donnell, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Global Systems & Services for Symbol. “We joined the SymbolCertified Professional Services Program because the training it offers has helped our staff upgrade their skills while also offering real-time connection with Symbol’s tier II support group,” said Keith Boyle, Director of Wireless Engineering for PEAK. “This direct linkage with Symbol allows our wireless engineering team to address issues, should they arise, in a timely manner while keeping our customers’ projects on schedule and within budget.” “PEAK’s customers gain the benefits of a single or multiple site solution that spans professional services, hardware, installation and support from one company that has their trust and confidence,” said Ken Neimo, Vice President of Enterprise Solutions for PEAK. “PEAK is a world class solution provider, and Symbol’s certification provides us the key to continued success. We are extremely excited about the benefits this earned certification provides our customers of today and the opportunities it will open for our clients tomorrow.” PEAK is among the first SymbolCertified Professional Services Providers with the ability to provide a complete solution offering, consistent performance and simplified project management to companies with multiple sites throughout North America.
