myPhotopipe.com Wins Contract from Department of Homeland Security Company to Provide Photographic Printing and Design Support Services to DHS
Thursday March 1, 2007
MyPhotopipe.com (OTC: MPPC), a web-based online provider of digital photo processing and related services, today announced that it has been awarded a contract from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The award calls for myPhotopipe.com to provide photographic printing and design support services to the DHS Office of Public Affairs. The Office of Public Affairs chronicles the agency’s responders, documents incident response teams, travels with Secretary Michael Chertoff, and provides photographic prints to the agency’s internal users as well as to the media and the general public.
“This is a milestone event in our Company’s history, and a real credit to our focus on the professional segment of the fast-growing digital photo processing market,” stated L. Douglas Keeney, Chief Executive Officer of myPhotopipe.com, Inc. “We are pleased to make this announcement, especially given the fact that we were competing against 12 other companies, including a number that were much larger than us. Homeland Security has told us that a significant factor in their decision to select myPhotopipe.com involved recommendations from our current customers. They were also pleased with our use of digital templates, our digital photo tools and our Internet resources.”
“The importance of this contract extends beyond the very significant revenue potential it represents, because it dramatically illustrates why the digital camera and the photographic print are enjoying such a renaissance. No matter where DHS operates, a digital camera is available, and our online photo processing tools allow the federal government to effectively document its response to a natural disaster or other incident with a photo montage, or to record a visit from the Secretary with an autographed photograph. We are thrilled, and at the same time honored, to help one of the largest branches of the United States government accomplish its mission.”
The Department of Homeland Security, which was created in 2002, has 180,000 employees and includes the following agencies, among others: Transportation Security Administration (TSA), U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement, U.S. Secret Service, Federal Emergency Management (FEMA), and the U.S. Coast Guard.
