DESCRIPTION

The government authority located in Kennewick, Washington seeks an experienced provider to furnish, install, and configure cost-effective, appropriately scaled IT networking infrastructure solutions across its office locations. The project involves comprehensive review, modernization, and improvement of the existing network infrastructure, including wireless connectivity, firewall and security systems, and the overall manageability of IT environments.
