VANCOUVER, WA, February 08, 2013 (Press-News.org) HTG, Inc., headquartered in Vancouver, WA, is in a growth spurt, often bidding against the biggest in the industry and lately, more often than not, winning. To Macaulay, this win is more evidence that he can be a lot smaller than his competitors to get the larger contracts in systems integration. Though the contract is another of many similar system conversions for HTG, the project involves client sites in 38 of 50 states. Macaulay says scar tissue and scalability are the keys to making projects of this size manageable.
"Sure at the onset these multi-site, nationwide rollouts can quickly turn in to logistical nightmares, but we've done it for so long, our processes are pretty airtight. And over the years we've developed the capacity to quickly scale up to meet the needs of nationwide LE deployments. The major difference between us and our larger competitors is that because we're smaller, we know exactly who we are putting on site to get the job done right the first time."
The icing on the cake for HTG was recent recognition for "Excellence in Global IT Support" presented to Macaulay by one of the largest heavy equipment manufacturer in the world. (Expansion of procurement services in 201l-2012 landed HTG in the global arena, with a new presence in Europe.)
Also known as a national leader in HIPAA compliance with the introduction of a recently expanded technology asset retirement program, HTG's steady growth during an unstable economy has firmly placed it in the large enterprise market.
Macaulay stated, "Getting the Global Excellence award was a nice way for us to finish out the year", and added with a wink that getting this contract is a nice way to show size doesn't always matter.
HTG Inc. helps national corporations complete major, multilocation IT projects with amazing efficiency. For such companies, we revolutionize the way their IT management gets done, saving them hundreds of thousands of dollars and tens of thousands of man-hours.

Ignition interlocks under Ohio law: What you need to know
2013-02-08
Operating a vehicle under the influence (OVI), also known as driving under the influence (DUI), is a serious charge in Ohio. Conventional penalties -- like fines and jail time -- can be very steep for Ohioans convicted of a drunk driving offense.
Yet, some of the most significant penalties for OVI are those that are unique to drunk driving crimes. The possibility of being forced to install an ignition interlock device in your vehicle is not only inconvenient and embarrassing, but could also mean substantial monetary costs.
Ignition interlocks force you to take a breath ...
Multiple drunk driving convictions could mean prison time in Ohio
2013-02-08
An Ohio man sentenced in December of 2012 found out the hard way that repeat drunk driving convictions can lead to serious trouble. Ricky Slabaugh, 49, was hammered in court with a five year prison sentence after racking up his ninth felony conviction of driving under the influence.
Not every repeat drunk driving offense results in such a steep penalty. Nonetheless, Mr. Slaubaugh's example serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of avoiding conviction when it comes to repeat drunk driving charges.
Penalties get progressively steeper for multiple DUIs

New workers' comp parking lot injury case from Oregon Court of Appeals
2013-02-08
When you're injured at work, you are entitled to workers' compensation benefits, which cover the cost of your medical treatment, provide you with partial wage replacement and in some instances pay for vocational rehabilitation. Yet, your employer or your employer's workers' comp insurer may try to say money by denying or limiting your claim for benefits.
One of the most common ways an employer or insurer tries to deny benefits is by saying that the injury did not actually occur at work -- in other words, that you were injured while doing something outside the scope of ...
Fatal car accidents cost South Carolina a staggering amount each year
2013-02-08
In the average year, more than one thousand South Carolinians lose their lives in preventable motor vehicle accidents. According to government data, motor vehicle crashes are the number one killer of Americans age 5 to 34, and are one of the top ten causes of death for all age groups.
The human toll of fatal car accidents is truly devastating -- nothing can replace the loss of a loved one. Yet, there are also substantial financial costs for those left behind when a family member loses his or her life in a car crash.
Loss of future earnings most significant monetary ...
NHTSA to require noise standards for hybrid vehicles
2013-02-08
Hybrid vehicles have a lot of benefits. Because they get much better gas mileage than traditional vehicles, hybrids are excellent both for the environment and for their owners' pocketbooks. However, they also pose a unique danger that many people are not aware of -- because hybrid engines are so quiet, pedestrians and cyclists often cannot hear them, making car accidents that much more likely. The risk is even higher for individuals with visual impairments who rely on their sense of sound to let them know when vehicles are approaching.
In response to this problem, the ...
Gang of eight, Obama present immigration reform proposals in Washington
2013-02-08
On Monday, January 28, 2013, a Bipartisan group of Senators introduced a blueprint for Comprehensive Immigration Reform (CIR). The Senators, dubbed the "Gang of Eight," include Shumer, McCain, Durbin, Graham, Menendez, Rubio, Bennett and Flake. With four Senators hailing from each side of the aisle, this is the first attempt at meaningful immigration reform since the ill-fated McCain/Kennedy proposal of some 8 years ago. Meanwhile, President Obama is determined to address the proposal and it is rumored that the Whitehouse's vision for reform will be somewhat more ...
The importance of negotiating a good commercial lease for your business
2013-02-08
Using a qualified lawyer to help you accomplish this goal
A large percentage of business entrepreneurs rent their business premises rather than purchasing them. Negotiating good lease terms is critical to your company's ultimate chances of success. If your lease expenses are too large a percentage of your overall overhead, no matter how well you do with the rest of your business operations, your business may be in trouble from the start.
Don't go into commercial lease negotiations unprepared or for that matter without an experienced attorney, particularly if you are ...
Venturing onto the snowy roads of New York
2013-02-08
This winter, a number of snowstorms have moved through New York. In late January and early February 2013, Parts of western and central New York received 15 to 21 inches. This is not the end of it, though. Even more weather that is treacherous is expected to move through the entire state over the next couple of months.
With poor winter conditions in sight, it is important that motorists exercise safe driving practices on the streets. Snow and ice breed slippery roadways, which are extremely hazardous to drivers. If you must attack the roads in winter, be certain that ...
The Texas UIFSA: dueling states' child support orders
2013-02-08
Sometimes it can be hard enough to get child support out of your son or daughter's other parent even when the other parent lives nearby. Imagine the difficulty if your ex lives in another state.
Because of the challenges of distance, differences among the states' family laws and the legal tangle when more than one states' courts issue child support orders concerning the same parent and child, federal law requires that all states, including Texas, adopt the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act, often referred to as the UIFSA.
The UIFSA provides an interstate system ...
Study reveals link between head injuries and brain disorder
2013-02-08
A tumble here. A concussion there. Many athletes view these events -- and any resulting injuries -- as just part of the game. But head injuries can be very serious, especially for people who are not athletes. A recent study links repetitive head injuries to a degenerative brain disease called chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE.
Details of the study
The four-year study conducted by researchers at Boston University examined the autopsy results of 85 men, many of whom were athletes who had played such sports as football, boxing and hockey. Veterans were also included ...
