Summitek Instruments Inc., a manufacturer of software products designed to automate spectrum management as well as S-parameter measurements, announced a new partnership agreement with TestMart Inc. TestMart, a marketplace operator and service provider for the test and measurement industry, will provide government marketplace services to better serve Summitek's diverse United States federal and defense-related customers.
The agreement authorizes TestMart to present a special catalog of Summitek products to be made available specifically to the government and military markets. The instruments offered include the OASIS application software package, for spectrum monitoring and interference identification tasks, and the advanced Spartan software for automating test solutions. Summitek measurement software can be used with a variety of industry standard equipment, software upgrade packages, add-on options as well as antenna hardware and training packages.
This special catalog is under General Services Administration (GSA) Multiple Award Schedules (MAS) managed by TestMart, who will provide content, transaction, marketing, sales support and reporting services around them. TestMart will also provide presentation and order processing though the GSA's e-commerce Web site, www.gsaadvantage.gov, and the company's own on-line marketplace, www.testmart.com.
"This agreement helps us continue to offer the US government an extensive catalog of quality, affordable products," said Peter Ostrow, president and CEO of TestMart. "Summitek provides government users terrific alternatives in the search and procurement of the most respected brands under GSA contract that are compliant with the federal Competition in Contracting Act (CICA)."
"This agreement with TestMart offers government and military users a convenient method to research and purchase our products. Additionally, it offers Summitek a new distribution channel into a previously unexplored market for our products," said Rick Hartman, president of Summitek Instruments. "We are pleased to be able to provide our OASIS and Spartan software, as well as our antenna products to GSA purchasers through TestMart. TestMart offers a wonderful selection of complimentary products for both OASIS and Spartan which we feel will be highly advantageous to TestMart users."
