Connections II can be used by all federal agencies, authorized federal contractors, agency-sponsored universities and laboratories, and authorized state, local and tribal governments. “The award of a GSA Connections II contract puts Concert Technologies in a new league as a competitor for government technology rollouts,” said Warren Suss, President of Suss Consulting.
