MARLBOROUGH, MA…

International Computerware, Inc. (ICI), a global Infrastructure, cloud- and end-user computing consulting firm, recently received EMC’s Services Partner of the Year Award for a second time in three years at EMC World, held May 21 through May 24 at the Venetian in Las Vegas. In addition to the Services Partner award, ICI also received EMC’s ASN Quality Service Award, achieved through customer satisfaction for an unprecedented fifth consecutive year.

“What I am most honored with is having won the Services Partner of the Year Award for Americas. This tells me that EMC also recognizes our value and they believe that this value is what customers are looking for,” said ICI Executive Vice President Jamie Shepard.  “With EMC’s strong channel focus, having ICI lead the way with an award-winning IOPS (Infrastructure Operations Professional Services) team only strengthens EMC’s channel model — and puts ICI at the top, raising the bar for others to achieve and model themselves after.”

Mr. Shepard continued, “Our business is about constant improvement so we can continue to serve our customers at a very high level. Achieving the Quality Service Award five years in a row means we’re improving our offerings to meet customers’ needs, and doing it seamlessly so there’s a smooth transition and no major hiccups to workflow.

“nCubed is our unique differentiator.  It is our long history of providing high level, in-depth infrastructure consulting brought to market via nCubed — the secret sauce, if you will — but it’s the amazing people at our company that make this recipe work,” said Shepard. “ICI has been around for more than a quarter of a century. You just don’t find that with IT startups. We have incorporated young talent over the years and it’s given us a great mix of veteran IT guys with business acumen and young talented IT pros. That’s what gives us the leverage to compete and triumph over companies several times our size. The results are this kind of recognition from the global leader in data delivery and protection: EMC.”

My Pinnacle Network announces August schedule of b2b networking meetings.

July 16, 2012 //  by admin

MPNBRAINTREE, HYANNIS, MARSHFIELD, MANSFIELD, NORWELL, MA AND WESTBOROUGH, MA…

The dog days of summer might slow some networking groups downs. Not My Pinnacle Network. My Pinnacle Network, a business-to-business monthly networking meeting with groups in Braintree, Norwell, Marshfield, Mansfield, Hyannis and Westborough, will keep its regular meeting schedule for the month of August.

August’s My Pinnacle Network Meetings are as follows:

The Braintree My Pinnacle Network will be held Tuesday, August 7, from 8:30 – 10 a.m. at 25 Braintree Hill Office Park, Suite 200, Braintree, MA 02184.

The Mansfield My Pinnacle Network will be held Wednesday, August 1, from 8:30 – 10 a.m. at 20 Cabot Boulevard, Suite 300, Mansfield, MA 02048.

The Westborough My Pinnacle Network will be held Tuesday, August 7, from 8:00 – 9:30 a.m. at 1900 West Park Drive, Suite 280, Westborough, MA 01581.

The Hyannis My Pinnacle Network will be held Tuesday, August 14, from 7:30 – 9 a.m. at 1520 Route 132, Hyannis, MA 02601.

The Marshfield My Pinnacle Network will be held on Thursday, August 2, from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., 165 Enterprise Drive, Marshfield, MA 02050.

The Norwell My Pinnacle Network meeting will be held on Wednesday, August 22 at the Smith Barney offices at 600 Longwater Drive, Suite 202, Norwell, MA 02061.

“We founded My Pinnacle Network so business owners whose customers are other businesses can have more meaningful networking opportunities. If a slower August schedule means you can get one more one-on-one meeting with another business owner in, that’s a big advantage over people taking the summer off,” said Steven V. Dubin, founder of My Pinnacle Network.

Adds Dubin, “For networkers, it’s actually the best time of year to try additional networking outlets. Many networking groups do lag during the summer. My Pinnacle Network members make an attendance commitment when joining—one excused absence per six months. So, even though its summer, our members are going to be here.”

Currently, My Pinnacle Network is offering a special charter rate of $200 per year or payments of $16.67 per month for one year. B2B professionals can apply directly by going to www.mypinnaclenetwork.com. Only one B2B professional will be selected for each category. Those categories can be found at http://mypinnaclenetwork.com/about/categories.aspx.

Prospective members are encouraged to attend a My Pinnacle Network meeting before committing to join. However, with the Charter Member price, the safest way to get to the front of the line for your category is to register online at www.mypinnaclenetwork.com. Payment is not required to register.

If you are interested in attending a meeting in your area, please contact Steven V. Dubin at  SDubin@MyPinnacleNetwork.com or 781-582-1061 to RSVP. There is no charge to visit a My Pinnacle Network meeting.

July 12, 2012 //  by admin

PLYMOUTH, MA…

In its first year, the Run for Faith took place right before and during Hurricane Irene. Nearly 100 runners and volunteers braved the storm for a successful first year. In gearing up its second run, set for Sunday, August 19 at 9am, Run for Faith, Inc., the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that organizes the race, is looking for volunteers to help before, during and after the race—hopefully without too much interference from Mother Nature.

“It was beyond description the effort our volunteers put in last year, particularly in the face of what became a hurricane,” said Matthew Romboldi, race organizer and son of Faith “Marcy” Romboldi, for whom the race is dedicated. “We need help in all areas of this year’s run. Whether you’re a runner, related to a runner, or just want to be part of a fun event that helps raise money for local charities and an exceptional facility— Dana Farber’s Yawkey Center for Cancer Care—then we can sure use your help.”

Volunteers are needed to man registration tables, water stations and other day-of-race functions. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Matthew Romboldi at 508-400-0751 or info@runforfaithplymouth.org.

The Run for Faith 4Miler is a a gold member in the Bayside Runner Racing Series. The four mile race starts at Plimouth Plantation at 9am on Sunday August 19. The 4 mile race loop captures spectacular views of Cape Cod Bay, the Eel River and scenic horse farms. The course features rolling hills and unmatched history.

The event will be professionally timed by Spitler Racing Systems.  There will also be a Stroller Division, so runners can run with their young children. Entry fee is $25 and part of the proceeds will go to scholarships for Plymouth high school students, Dana Farber and other Plymouth charities and non-profits.

The first Run for Faith resulted in two $2,500 scholarships for local Plymouth high school students—Graham Allen from Plymouth South High School and Nathan Fuller from Plymouth North High School. The Run for Faith also donated $5000 to the aforementioned Yawkey Center, as well as contributions to the Plymouth Public Library and other Plymouth charities.

Prizes will go to top finishers, male and female, and awards will be given to top finishers for various age groups. Post-race “light refreshments” will include bananas, oranges, bagels, muffins and scones.  To amuse younger family members, a jumpy house will be available. A number of vendors will be on hand to sell their wares before and after the race.

The Run for Faith is organized by Run for Faith, Inc., which is 501(c)(3) non-profit organization created to commemorate the special life of Faith “Marcy” Romboldi who gave so much of herself to both individuals and the community. Corporate sponsors include Nolan Schelle Insurance, Marty’s GMC, Liddell Brothers Traffic Safety Systems, 99.1 WPLM, Powderhorn Press, Plimoth Plantation, Girls on the Go.

Lakefront expansion. Lakefront Living Realty hires Lake Quinsigamond and Shrewsbury resident Fern Nissim.

Fern Nissim of Lakefront Living Realty, LLC.

MANSFIELD and SHREWSBURY, MA…

Lakefront Living Realty, LLC, a Mansfield, MA-based Real Estate Brokerage specializing solely on the purchase and sale of lakefront property, recently hired Shrewsbury resident Fern Nissim to assist lakefront buyers and sellers in Central Massachusetts.

“Purchasing and selling a lakefront home is different than any other real estate,” said Scott Freerksen, broker and owner of Lakefront Living Realty, LLC. “Fern’s experience as a Realtor® and marketing professional, combined with her knowledge of lakes in Central Massachusetts, will make her an outstanding addition to the Lakefront Living team.”

In addition to her experience in both residential and commercial real estate, Nissim has also owned and operated her own marketing company. Besides her professional expertise, she also brings a lifelong love of lakefront living to her new job. Over the past 25 years Nissim has owned, redesigned and built many lakefront homes. She currently lives on Lake Quinsigamond with her husband Robert, a naturalist and environmental engineer.

“This may sound kind of cliché, but with this new opportunity, I get to live two dreams. One is living on a lake the other is helping other people realize that same dream,” said Nissim.

Lakefront Living Realty specializes solely on the purchase and sale of pond and lakefront property in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. In addition to their lakefront expertise, the company offers a current and complete database of lakefront properties on their website that features only direct lakefront homes. All the “riverfront”, “oceanfront”, “across the street”, “within walking distance” homes are taken out of the site.

“Unfortunately, many people buying lakefront property are working with Realtors® not skilled in this area. Consequently, many people have inherited some headaches that could have been avoided,” said Freerksen. “By hiring local experts like Fern, Lakefront Living helps our clients avoid those mistakes so living on a lake is the fulfillment of a dream and not the start of a nightmare.”

For more information on Lakefront Living Realty’s services, you can visit their website at www.lakefrontliving.com. Additionally, Scott Freerksen regularly holds seminars on the keys to buying and selling lakefront property. Please visit the company website or call 508-377-7167 for the date and time of the next seminar.

HR Knowledge advises on when and how to outsource human resources

July 11, 2012 //  by admin

Jeff Garr, CEO

Juggling the needs of your business with business tasks can be a delicate balancing act. Whether you elect to do things in-house or outsource tasks such as human resources depends partially upon the company’s growth, and partially upon finding excellent outsourcing partners.

Jeffrey C. Garr, CEO of HR Knowledge, Inc., a leading HR, payroll and benefits service provider in the Boston area explained, “As a company grows, it’s important to know when to look for support outside of the company. This is referred to as outsourcing. Knowing your strengths helps you to determine what aspects of your business can be outsourced to a specialist, which ultimately saves you time and money in the long run.”

There are five keys to understanding when and how to outsource human resources for success:

1. Know your core value proposition. The first step to intelligently delegating work outside your company is understanding what you do best. This is your core value proposition. Many of the things that are important to running a business will pull your attention and focus away from the core value, and understanding it and knowing what it is that you do best will help your company grow and will also define those things that should be done within the company versus those activities that potentially could be outsourced.

2. Be organized. Before you can delegate you must create the specification of work. The extent in which you can clearly delineate the scope of the project or work will define how successful you will be. In addition, you should create a timetable for deliverables, a template for reporting, and an exit strategy if the relationship isn’t functioning the way you feel it should be. Not creating a clear understanding in the beginning could be a recipe for failure in the future.

3. Know Your Budget. Your time is valuable. You’re more likely productive at your core value proposition that you are to some of the supporting roles that are necessary to run a business. To that extent, outsourcing will actually save you money since you can be much more proficient doing what you do best and simply paying others to do what they do best.

4. Make a Plan. Authorized alterations can be expensive. If you have plan, try to stick to the plan. Each modification that sounds great as the project moves along may wind up costing in the end. Be sure that you have a goal and plan in mind and that you and your outsourced vendor are both sticking to that plan.

5. Don’t Settle. If you aren’t happy with the results or the partnership, it’s possible you missed one of the steps along the way – you may not have made a good plan, or you may not have clearly shared expectations. Either way, if it becomes apparent that the project is not progressing well, you should have an exit plan.

Garr continued, “Understanding and sharing expectations when it comes to outsourcing is critical for the relationship to be effective.”

Maplewood Estates goes “new school”, celebrates the opening of the new Rogers Middle School with gift card for Maplewood Estates residents/students who will be attending the new school.

July 11, 2012 //  by admin

ROCKLAND, MASSACHUSETTS

The start of a school year is an adjustment for most families. If you just moved into a new house into a new town, it can be an even more challenging transition. In an effort to help ease the transition into the new school year, Maplewood Estates, a single-family home community located off Webster Street in Rockland, Massachusetts, is awarding new residents with children attending the new middle school, the John W. Rogers Middle School, with a $150 Staples gift card.

“The Rockland school system is one of the bigger benefits for families moving into Maplewood Estates, particularly if you have children that are middle school age and can attend the brand new school and later the soon-to-be-refurbished high school, said Bisher Hashem, Trustee of Maple Realty Trust, the developer of Maplewood Estates. “With all the expenses involved in moving into a new home, the Staples card is just our way of making sure each new resident of Maplewood Estates who is going to the new school has what they need to get started.”

In addition to the gift card, Maplewood Estates will also give $2,000 in additional upgrades for new residents of the development who sign a purchase-and-sale agreement between July 1 and August 15 and have children attending the new middle school. The Rockland Public School system starts school on Tuesday, September 4.

“We’re extremely proud of the new Middle School and the work being done on the high school,” said Rockland Superintendent John Retchless of the $86 million dollar project. “We feel the new school will improve the quality of services we can provide to our current students and be a very attractive draw to the Town of Rockland for families considering a move to the area.”

Construction on the high school portion is anticipated to be concluded by December 2012.

Maplewood Estates is set on 30 acres of natural wooded land and is located in the town of Rockland, Massachusetts. All of these beautiful homes offer many amenities and options to satisfy the savvy buyer looking to build a new home that comes with quality construction, quality living, and quality investment. Prices start at $348,000 and the size of homes range from just under 1700-square feet (the three-bed, Newbury) to the Gloucester (2740-square-feet and four bedrooms). Maplewood Estates is zoned for 72 homes.

Model homes at Maplewood Estates are open daily for tours by appointment. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Norwell is the official realtor for Maplewood Estates. You can schedule a tour or request more information by contacting:

Pilgrim 14 to Appear in Plymouth District Court Wednesday

July 10, 2012 //  by admin

PLYMOUTH, MASS.

The 14 citizens arrested on May 20 for protesting the ongoing operation and destruction caused by the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station will appear in Plymouth District Court tomorrow for a pre-trial hearing.

The “Pilgrim 14” were arrested May 20 at a rally and demonstration outside the Pilgrim station, which is operated by Entergy Nuclear Generating Corporation of Louisiana. The group was demonstrating in opposition of Entergy-Louisiana’s application for a 20-year operating license, which the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved on May 25.

The Pilgrim 14 were arrested and charged with trespassing when they attempted to deliver a letter to Entergy-Louisiana. The arrest was peaceful and those charged cooperated with police.

“There is unity among the defendants and we want to send a very clear message to Entergy-Louisiana: the NRC wrongly issued you a license to operate and it’s time to stop your assault upon Plymouth and Massachusetts,” said David Agnew of Cape Downwinders. “We also want citizens to contact their state officials and let them know the NRC’s relicensing was reckless, irresponsible and unacceptable without resolving all the environmental and public safety contentions.”

The Pilgrim 14 will appear in Plymouth District Court, 52 Obery Street, Plymouth tomorrow at 8:30 a.m.

South Coast Improvement Completes Construction and Renovation at Willow Creek Rehab and Care Center – Twice

July 10, 2012 //  by admin

South Coast Improvement, one of the largest design, construction and management companies in the Northeast, completed construction and renovation on Willow Creek Rehabilitation and Care Center, a 180 bed skilled nursing center located in Somerset, NJ. South Coast Improvement completed the project twice – before and after Hurricane Irene.

In early 2011, South Coast Improvement was contracted to provide a full renovation to Willow Creek Rehabilitation and Care Center. They successfully completed the job on time and within budget. The project scope included: the creation of STAR (Specialized Therapy and Rehabilitation) Wing within the facility; the addition of a dedicated entrance to the STAR Wing with porte-cochere; the creation of an enlarged OT/PT Gym; new construction of a 600 square foot Spa/Hydrotherapy room; construction of a new STAR Dining Room with custom millwork, solid surfaces and a Presentation Cooking Space; construction of new Staff Lounge/Locker Rooms; full renovation of all common areas and Administrative Offices; full upgrade of 168 rooms; construction of two custom nurses stations and new patient rooms from underutilized floor space; construction of a new Cyber Café and numerous building envelope improvements.

In the summer of 2011, Hurricane Irene devastated Willow Creek Rehabilitation and Care Center‘s entire facility, leaving it submerged in three feet of water. South Coast Improvement renovated the entire facility again, installing new walls, finishes, flooring, fixtures, millwork and HVAC. South Coast Improvement designed a functioning temporary egress plan and worked with town officials to secure permission to open 30 percent of the facility (The Traumatic Brain Injury Unit) in 30 days while the remainder of the facility was being renovated. The company mobilized crews to work seven days a week with multiple shifts to ensure the project‘s successful completion within 110 days.

Once construction was concluded, Willow Creek Rehabilitation’s owner hosted a grand Appreciation Lunch for South Coast Improvement and all the subcontractors for facilitating the center’s reopening in a timely manner.
