Enhancing Federal IT Programs for Systems Integrators

XSi currently supports 42 federal agencies and 12 of the Top 15 Federal Systems Integrators with IT hardware maintenance (servers, storage, networking) support solutions which aid federal Program capture, impacts contract performance and improves profitability.

As an independent hardware lifecycle solutions provider, the XSi service suite directly addresses older, post-warranty (legacy) hardware assets.
