EasyStreet to Provide Internet Services for City of Portland

Rigorous RFP process proves EasyStreet’s value to local city government

Beaverton, Ore. — November 13, 2007 — EasyStreet Online Services, Inc. has won a bid to provide Internet access for the City of Portland.
“Needless to say, we’re thrilled to be serving this major public sector organization,” said EasyStreet’s CEO and President, Rich Bader. “It’s recognition of the maturation of our company and our ability to serve large organizations with sophisticated and reliable services.”


A robust connection for the City of Portland

After a lengthy Request for Proposals (RFP) process, the City of Portland, Bureau of Technology Services (BTS), selected EasyStreet to be their Internet Service Provider (ISP).


The goal of the City’s RFP was to select a provider who could provide a scalable, redundant, reliable and cost-effective solution to meet the City’s growing Internet requirements.


Suppliers responding to the City of Portland’s RFP were scored in areas of stability, vision, diversity in employment and technical fit with the City’s requirements. EasyStreet’s proposed network diagram describes a fully redundant architecture with no single point of failure.


“EasyStreet is used to competing with other suppliers,” said EasyStreet’s VP of Sales and Marketing, Russ Sprunger, “but responding to the City of Portland’s RFP was a thorough, sophisticated and challenging process that went way beyond what most businesses require.”


City of Portland Production Engineering Manager, Paul Rothi, said, “The City of Portland is increasingly dependent on reliable high speed Internet access to deliver services to Portland residents and organizations. EasyStreet emerged from the bid process as the ISP best suited for meeting the City’s needs.”
