ISI Announces Acquisition of the Service Bureau
Division of Account-A-Call |
SCHAUMBURG, IL - ISI Inc, a leading supplier of call accounting
and telemanagement systems, has signed an agreement to purchase
the Account-A-Call service bureau, announced Rich Wilkus, President
of ISI.
The agreement provides for the sale and transfer of the Account-A-Call
service bureau division of AAC Corporation, based in Southern California,
to ISI. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Both companies
are privately held.
"ISI is focused on the fastest growth areas in telemanagement
today," stated Wilkus, "and outsourced call accounting
is clearly one of them."

service bureau, Infortel-TSB, has experienced double-digit growth
during the past few years," explains Wilkus. "Infortel-TSB
is one of the most full-featured, state-of-the-art systems utilizing
web technology available. Now, coupled with the Account-A-Call customer

distinctly solidifies our leadership position in this growing market
segment."
ISI, Inc. was founded in 1977 and is a leader in the design, manufacture
and marketing of telemanagement systems. Its Infortel® products

enterprise-wide telecommunications management systems, to stand-alone,
PC-based call accounting modules and a sophisticated outsourcing
service bureau. ISI products are web-enabled and use the latest
software technology. ISI is one of only several companies in its
industry that has earned ISO 9001 certification.
