NEW YORK, Aug. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Logicalis US, an international IT solutions and managed services provider (www.us.logicalis.com), announced this morning the appointment of Adam Petrovsky to the position of Logicalis GovEd Practice Leader in the United States.  In this position, Petrovsky will be responsible for defining Logicalis' go-to-market strategy in four key areas: K12 education, higher education, local government and state government.

Business and Technology Working as One.

By collaborating with internal management teams, Petrovsky will help shape the GovEd solutions and services Logicalis brings to market in the United States.  In addition to developing and overseeing the execution of the practice's business plan, Petrovsky will also enable the GovEd team's salespeople to deeply and effectively engage with public sector clients; work directly with clients on GovEd contracts, policies and programs such as E-Rate and bond/grant programs; and manage business-critical GovEd vendor relationships.

"The addition of Adam Petrovsky to the Logicalis team marks an important milestone for our GovEd practice," says Mike Martin, Senior Vice President, Solutions and Services, Logicalis US. "Adam brings over two decades of experience in IT and a particular affinity for matching winning technology solutions to pressing public sector issues. A go-to expert in government and education, Adam has a passion for public sector work unrivaled in the industry, something which will make him both an asset to the Logicalis GovEd team and a strong leader for the practice."

"When solution providers work in the public sector, it's very different from private sector work; it's not about helping clients increase their bottom lines.  It's about enabling kids in a classroom to use tablets to access the web, or dispatching fire trucks faster through technology. Ultimately, it's about helping our clients provide better services to their citizenry," says Adam Petrovsky, GovEd Practice Leader, Logicalis US.  "That's why I start each and every day excited about my job, knowing that what I do either directly or indirectly helps schoolchildren learn better, prevents voter fraud, or helps a single mom get her public assistance check just when it's needed most.  And with the kind of experienced GovEd team we have at Logicalis, we can make an important difference for our public sector clients because we understand them, we know the issues they're facing, and we know how to use technology to help solve those problems."

Logicalis has been a leader in public sector sales and solutions for over 20 years.  Its GovEd practice offers technology evaluations, advice, solution sales and implementations, and a host of supporting professional services in four key areas:

  • K12 Education
  • Higher Education
  • Local Government
  • State Government
