Surfacide | March 20, 2023
Surfacide, an industry leader in UV-C low-level disinfection technology, announced today that it has been awarded a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). This contract will allow government customers and federal agencies to easily procure Surfacide's Helios® UV-C disinfection systems for their healthcare facilities. As a GSA Schedule Contractor, Surfacide has met all the requirements to sell to the federal government, making the federal purchasing process faster and more cost-effective for government agencies. Government buyers will now be able to access Surfacide products through GSA Advantage!, the government's premier online shopping superstore.
The Surfacide Helios system is the only patented, low-level UV-C disinfection solution to use a trio of light emitting 'robots' simultaneously, significantly reducing bacteria and virus on colonized surfaces. The Helios system provides UV-C energy to more exposed areas than single devices—boosting power, dosage and efficacy in a single cycle. The system can be easily moved and configured within different high-impact areas of a hospital or clinic such as patient rooms, patient bathrooms, ORs, outpatient/ambulatory surgery, burn units, labor & delivery, isolation rooms, etc.
"As a GSA Schedule Contractor, we now have the stamp of approval stating that we've met all the requirements to sell to the federal government, giving us a huge benefit in the federal purchasing process," said Gunner Lyslo, CEO & Founder of Surfacide. "We're proud to have been awarded this GSA MAS contract and are excited to provide our innovative UV-C disinfection technology to government customers more efficiently."
Surfacide is rapidly growing and has become widely adopted in the VA space. After seeing the benefits of Surfacide's scientifically-proven technology, more and more VA facilities are transitioning from single emitters to Surfacide's patented triple-emitter Helios System.

Finvi | February 28, 2023
One of the leading enterprise workflow automation software providers, Finvi, is built to accelerate revenue recovery and simplify the payment process, recently announced that it has been awarded the Authorization to Operate (ATO) by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) at the Moderate Impact level.
The FedRAMP is a government-wide program that encourages using secure cloud services across the federal government by establishing a uniform methodology for assessing the security and risk associated with cloud computing for federal agencies.
Finvi can bring its 40+ years of experience and innovation to the federal level, allowing federal agencies to enjoy the same advantages as their state and local counterparts. However, to get FedRAMP approval, Finvi's cloud services must be looked at more than once by a federal agency partner and an independent third-party assessment organization (3PAO). These tests and reviews aimed to regulate if Finvi's cloud offerings meet the strict security standards required to work with federal agencies.
Finvi, after the authorization, is recognized as Ontario Cloud Federal (OCF) in the collection of Cloud Service Providers (CSP) available on the FedRAMP Marketplace. As featured in the Marketplace, Finvi's distinctive software-as-a-service cloud-based offering for healthcare revenue and accounts receivables management comprises contact management and payment processing solutions designed to facilitate debt collection, collections and receivables, payments, reporting and information services, customer service, as well as software system development.
