Force 3 Gains Certification as a Trusted Technology Provider™ from The Open Group

Force 3, a Sirius Company, announced today that it has achieved accreditation from The Open Group as a Trusted Technology Provider™ by meeting the Open Trusted Technology Provider™ Standard (O-TTPS) requirements.

The O-TTPS, a standard of The Open Group, was developed to provide a set of guidelines, recommendations and requirements that help assure against maliciously tainted and counterfeit products throughout commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) information and communication technology (ICT) product lifecycles. The standard includes best practices throughout all phases of a product's life cycle: design, sourcing, build, fulfillment, distribution, sustainment, and disposal, thus enhancing the integrity of COTS ICT products and the security of their global supply chains.

"As the risk of cybersecurity threats continue to increase, along with the potential damages of using counterfeit or compromised products to protect from these threats, it's more important than ever to ensure the security of the products and services our customers rely on," said Force 3 CEO Mike Greaney. "Achieving this certification demonstrates our commitment to providing our customers with the most secure product and service possible."

The O-TTPS was developed by consensus in The Open Group Trusted Technology Forum (OTTF) where industry members identify best practices and processes. These processes contribute to the secure and trusted development, manufacturing, delivery, and ongoing operation of commercial products. This program is one of the first of its kind in providing certification for conforming to standards for product integrity coupled with supply chain security.

"The Open Trusted Technology Provider Standard (O-TTPS) was developed in response to a changing landscape and the increased sophistication of cybersecurity attacks worldwide," said Andrew Josey, VP Standards and Certification for The Open Group. "It consists of guidelines, requirements, and testing to align with best practices for global supply chain security. This standard also ensures the integrity of commercial-off-the-shelf information and communication technology." Read all the related news.

MonarchFx, a Business Unit of Tompkins International, Expands into the Healthcare Industry

MonarchFx, a business unit of Tompkins International, is proud to announce the launch of our healthcare division, MonarchFh, under the leadership of Benjamin Patipa, MD., newly appointed Vice President of Healthcare Strategy. Due to increasing regulations, supply chain inefficiencies, product security concerns, and healthcare being crippled by rising costs, MonarchFx has created MonarchFh to respond to the demands of the new healthcare. Healthcare spending in the U.S. will reach $4.8 trillion by 2021. The medical supplies market has been growing exponentially and is expected to reach $132 billion by 2022. Over 25% of U.S. sales are occurring in eCommerce, while costs have quadrupled forcing healthcare businesses to start seeking areas where they can grow their bottom line. One such area is the supply chain. As the healthcare industry traditionally enjoyed healthy margins, the changing landscape puts those margins at risk. It is now imperative to integrate the whole healthcare supply chain and no longer work in silos. "Few industries are experiencing more disruption than healthcare. MonarchFh is perfectly positioned to help this sector build customer centric fulfillment systems," stated Jim Tompkins, CEO of MonarchFx.

Ben Patipa, as an M.D. and business leader, brings over 30 plus years of corporate leadership experience for public and private companies in healthcare, brand development, insurance, financial services, technology, and real estate investment. His past professional experience includes being CEO at Tenet Healthcare Corp., the nation's second largest hospital company, where he led their accountable care organization and healthcare reform activities; Assistant President at Hearx Ltd., where he co-engineered the company's restructuring and co-led facilities management and supply chain; President/CEO at Bravo! Brands, Inc. where he led business strategy and re-energized operations; and EVP at eHDL/Healthnet Data Link where he was responsible for all functional aspects of the Physician Practice Management and EDI business. Patipa also pioneered successful innovative ventures including Weight For Me, the nation's first and largest Pediatric and Adolescent Weight Control centers and MedMark Group, the nation's first medically owned and operated healthcare marketing and advertising agency. "Patipa's expertise in healthcare makes him the perfect addition to our business model," stated Gene Tyndall, President of MonarchFx.

Eduventures® Student Sentiment Survey™ Examines the Communication Preferences of College-Bound High School Students

The National Research Center for College and University Admissions™ (NRCCUA®), an educational data science and research organization that was recently acquired by ACT®,​ ​today announced findings from its Eduventures' Research division. Available in the Eduventures app on the Encoura™ Data Lab platform, the inaugural Student Sentiment Survey™ explores the key areas of college search behavior and communication preferences to help higher education enrollment officers create more effective outreach strategies. Designed as a compliment to Eduventures' Prospective Student Survey™, which measures brand perceptions of college-bound high-school students, and the Survey of Admitted Students™, which examines the enrollment decision and helps traditional institutions improve yield, this latest survey answers one of the most burning questions facing enrollment offices today: Now that I've identified my prospective students and crafted my message, how do I get it out?

Click here to read the latest news.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/rob-lowe-hosts-new-on-demand-segment-on.html

Key findings from the survey include:

Six Prospective Student Search Strategies that reinforce that students are not a homogenous group, but rather they are individuals with unique preferences and behaviors. These include:

Analysis of the most used vs. most trusted marketing channels that highlights the influence of email (most used and trusted), social media (less used and very little-trusted), and third-party sources (often used and trusted).
The influence of search stage that illustrates how more than 80% of all students—sophomores, juniors, and seniors—actively engage in college search, their communication preferences change as their searches progress. In particular, it highlights the increased use of mobile for college search among younger students (39% of sophomores vs. 30% of seniors).

"As growth in the number of high school students has stalled in recent years, the composition of those students has evolved," said Johanna Trovato, Senior Analyst and primary author of this study. "More first generation, underrepresented minority, and low income students are placing a wholly different set of pressures on recruiting efforts. Students are applying to nearly twice as many colleges and universities, on average, than they did a decade ago. In the zero-sum game of traditional undergraduate student recruitment, this creates an increasingly competitive landscape."

As generations change and traditional undergraduate student recruiting becomes more complex, a "one-size-fits-all" marketing strategy is not sufficient. This report highlights an outreach strategy that will help institutions attract, engage, and convert best-fit students.

It’s PSL Time! Limited Time Offer Pumpkin Spice Lattes Are Still Working It for Fans and Foodservice Operators

Pumpkin spice lattes — a phrase so popular and used so frequently that it has been shortened to PSL — are now synonymous with fall and a highly anticipated annual tradition for fans and the foodservice operators offering them. PSL limited time offers have been around for over a decade and are still proving to be a winning promotion, reports The NPD Group. More info here.

The payoff for chains offering PSL limited time offers are more visits and a higher average check size, according to NPD's Checkout, a receipt harvesting research service that analyzes purchase behavior over time. Buyers of PSLs in the 2017 season visited twice as many times and had an average check 10 percent higher than non-buyers. PSL purchasers spend an average of $3 more when PSLs are purchased, but they make 3 times as many non-PSL purchases as they do PSL.

Who are these perennial purchasers of the pumpkin spice latte? They tend to have higher incomes, 60 percent have a household income of $75,000 and above. PSL fans skew slightly more female (53 percent) than male and 45 percent of them are 45 years and older. Over 60 percent of pumpkin spice latte aficionados do not have children under 18 in the household, finds the Checkout analysis.

"It's a winning strategy for coffee chains to continue to offer pumpkin spice lattes as a limited time offer. Consumers anticipate their availability and know the drinks are only around for a short period of time and this anticipation creates demand," says Annie Roberts, vice president-Foodservice at NPD. "In addition, pumpkin spice latte limited time offers have a positive impact on visit frequency and check averages as consumers tend to purchase food along with the beverage. It doesn't get much better than that."
