Dominant Mid-Atlantic Voice & Data Services Agency - ARG - Grows Bigger, Stronger: NetGain Communications to Merge Customers and Employees into ARG

Online, May 7, 2010 (Newswire.com) - NetGain Communications in Reston, VA today announced that it will merge its telecom agency operations into ARG, Inc. of McLean, VA, effective May 1, 2010. The complementary strengths of the two companies will offer customers unmatched support and expertise.

"The combined customer base of both companies will benefit greatly from the operational synergies created with the merge," stated Greg Praske, ARG CEO. "We're very excited about where this powerful combination of strategic business professionals and senior management teams will take us in the marketplace."

"NetGain's team brings extensive industry knowledge and established customer relationships to ARG," noted Steve Praske, ARG president. "The exceptional chemistry and alignment that exists between the two companies means that relationships with both customers and partners can proceed on an accelerated basis."

"ARG has earned a well-deserved and enviable reputation for delivering the best customer care in the industry and we know our clients will be well served," said Peter Callowhill, NetGain CEO.

"We see great opportunity in working with ARG on the delivery of complementary services for the combined client base," said James Larsen, NetGain COO. Callowhill and Larsen will continue to evolve NetGain's Telecom Expense Management (TEM) business unit, iTEMize Technologies, as they plan new business lines such as energy expense management.

To foster collaboration, members of ARG's executive team will join the Advisory Board of a new energy business being established by Callowhill and Larsen, while the two executives will become members of ARG's Advisory Board.

ARG has been in business since 1991. Post merger ARG Inc. will support over 3,000 organizations with national and international offices ranging in size from 10 to over 5,000 employees.
