Vancouver, BC, May 22, 2007 - TP Systems is pleased to announce that it has entered into a five-year IT Managed Services Agreement with BC’s Legal Services Society. During the five-year period, TP Systems will be responsible for supporting six key applications and interface processes essential to the society’s day-to-day operations.

The services and technical resources TP Systems will provide to Legal Services Society are part of Legal Services Society’s overall strategic IT goals and objectives. “TP Systems’ quality assurance processes are part of our standard development support offering, addressing the society’s need to focus on defining business requirements for application development and enhancements,” said Glenn James, TP Systems’ Director, Managed Services.

Focussed on delivering solutions and services to the health and human services sector, the working relationship with a non-profit such as Legal Services Society was inevitable for TP Systems. The IT expertise and services TP Systems is set to provide Legal Services Society are similar to those currently supplied to other organizations firmly rooted in the human services sector.

“The majority of TP Systems’ client base is involved in work that lends a helping hand to segments of the population, which, otherwise, may not have the resources, information or access to get help. This is the kind of work we do too: transforming technology into an efficient and economical tool that helps organizations deliver services to the people who need it most. We see the two organizations working together as a great fit,” said John Thompson, TP Systems’ President.
