Expetec Celebrates Fifth Anniversary

(Rochester Hills, MI) – In an industry that has seen a lot of service providers come and go, Expetec Technology Services of Rochester Hills is entering its fifth year of operation. Vicki Shepard and Mike Fitz-Gerald opened the only southeast Michigan Expetec Technology Services franchise in 2005.

Expetec, the name derived from “Experts in Technology,” specializes in a wide array of computer products and services including remote systems monitoring, managed services, network security and web building and design, as well as network and computer sales and repair.  The cutting edge products have been designed to assist small and medium-sized businesses that may or may not have an internal IT department.
“When we opened the Expetec Michigan franchise, we were doing a lot of computer repair and recovery resulting from viruses and spyware,” Shepard said.  “As small businesses in metro Detroit become more sophisticated, they are contacting us more for proactive systems maintenance and problem prevention.”

Shepard and Fitz-Gerald have more than 40 years combined IT experience in systems and information security, business continuity, asset protection and workplace productivity in financial services, manufacturing and other sectors.   They are owners and operators of the southeast Michigan Expetec office and provide daily service to a wide variety of companies and organizations throughout the Detroit metro area.

Expetec, derived from Experts in Technology, specializes in a wide array of computer products and services.  Expetec takes care of business I.T. – technical support, network administration, software updates, hardware and data protection, phone systems and more.

Expetec can serve as a business’s virtual I.T. department, or complement existing technical staff.  Expetec’s approach helps reduce operating costs and allows business employees to focus on growing their business.

Expetec Technology Services was founded in 1992 in Aberdeen, SD and began franchising in 1996. The company’s migration from a break/fix to a full service IT company has made it the leading managed services provider for small-to-medium sized businesses.  Expetec has been awarded numerous honors for exceptional growth and service.  Expetec is the only I.T. company to receive the American Association of Franchise and Dealers coveted seal of fair franchising.  More information regarding Expetec’s unique franchise offering and business model may be found at www.expetec.com or by contacting the company’s corporate headquarters at 888-297-2292.
