Per year,The Remi Group deals with 2,000 vendors on the service side of the portfolio, and continues to vet that list every day. For this innovative industry leader, offering an outstanding customer experience is the top priori- ty.Maintaining that experience through third-par- ty service providers can be challenging and takes a great deal of time and money. But Remi is com- mitted to making sure that every customer issue is heard.Howison sums up why he believes his com- pany is the best choice as a maintenance provider: “There are many organizations that either don’t know there’s an alternative to buying an OEM maintenance contract, or they know it, but are hes- itant because they are nervous about what hap- pens if theymove away from it.We’d like everyone to know that in most cases there is an alternative. And it’s not something that happened last night,or out of somebody’s garage.It’s an alternative that’s been here for 20 years and is serving federal agen- cies,state governments,police crime labs,high-end healthcare customers,and the like.We at The Remi Group are a legitimate and viable alternative that should be explored.”
