Compsource adds Buy It Installed™ responding to market demand from Do-It-For-Me customers in the wake of Amazon's in-house service division announcement. Compsource customers can buy products installed by clicking Buy It Installed™.

Cleveland, OH and Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 04, 2017

CompSource, Inc., a mid-sized ecommerce retailer of computers, televisions, hardware, and other consumer electronics, has announced its integration of the Buy It Installed™ ecommerce button. This integration will enable http://www.compsource.com to join the ranks of Amazon and Best Buy, which offer their own branded installation services. Customers anywhere in the United States who are shopping on http://www.compsource.com will now get a choice: Add to Cart and then install themselves, or buy products installed by clicking Buy It Installed™.

“Given that our Add to Cart button primarily converts Do-It-Yourselfers, we wanted a sure-fire way to tap into the other half of the consumer segment, the Do-It-For-Me segment,” says Dean Bellone, President of CompSource, Inc. “Integrating the Buy It Installed™ option is a no-brainer for us. It will significantly increase our conversion rates, decrease cart abandonment, lower product returns, and enhance our consumers’ end-to-end buying experience.”

Amazon’s Increasing Market Pressure

The recent announcement of Amazon’s in-house service division signaled a seismic shift toward serving the massive Do-It-For-Me consumer segment. It also served as a stark warning to all ecommerce retailers that sell any sort of serviceable products: “Having an option for consumers to more easily purchase products by providing a seamless service option is no longer a ‘nice to have.’ It is a ‘must have’ in order to stay competitive,” says Grant Van Cleve, CEO of Buy It Installed, Inc. “Not having an integrated service solution will impact potential sales, and it risks punishment in the markets and investment community.”

On Monday morning, July 10, 2017, this became crystal clear after Amazon announced their installation option. Recode reported that shares of Best Buy—the only electronic company with an established popular service offering, Geek Squad—took a $1 Billion-dollar hit. Amazon’s arrival in the space thwarted Best Buy’s competitive advantage in installed sales. For ecommerce retailers competing with Amazon, without any installed service offering of their own, this news was even more ominous. It signaled the beginning of an era where they would be forced to build or acquire their own integrated service solution to meet their customers’ service needs anywhere in the nation.

“We are at the forefront of a major disruptive transition in the industry. Gone are the days when brick-and-mortar retailers dominate the delivery of installed-sales,” says David Pourjahan, Senior Director of Sales for Buy It Installed, Inc. “Amazon has developed their own internal, integrated service solution to not only compete against installed-sales competitors, but to put massive pressure on other pure-play ecommerce retailers to acquire their own integrated service solution.”

Acquiring An Integrated Service Solution

For companies desiring an integrated service solution, the options are limited. Building such an offering internally typically takes many years, and finding satisfactory external third-party partners is challenging: “We tried partnering with service marketplaces and handyman services in the past, and, while it kind of worked, it wasn’t a smooth seamless experience for our consumers,” says Bellone. “What is different about the Buy It Installed™ option is the incredible depth of installed-sales expertise and technology behind the scenes and their ease of integration. The Buy It Installed™ button succeeds at optimizing the consumer’s experience.”

Buy It Installed, Inc., the company that developed Buy It Installed™, was founded with the goal to level the playing field between the few large companies who have built their own integrated services networks and the other companies looking to compete. Its purpose is to provide turn-key national integrated service solutions. “Early in my career I created a service division for a company and then watched them devastate their competition within two years,” said Todd Banhidy, founder and Chief Business Architect of Buy It Installed, Inc. “While a great success, I was unhappy with the experience. The Company was well funded and profited because it could afford to build its own internal solution. It wiped out its competitors of all sizes in no time, simply because of its ability to leverage its national installed-sales solution. Since then, I have set out to create an installed-sales solution which was as powerful as that internal offering, yet was simple to integrate and could be used by all companies, large and small. It took many years to develop, and the use of cutting-edge technology to achieve it. Now, in its completed form, Buy It Installed™ enables all companies to compete fair and square in the $2 trillion installed-sales market.”

“It is amazing to see a relatively small company in this space with their level of sophisticated technology,” says Neil Sahota, WorldWide IBM Watson Artificial Intelligence Leader and United Nations Artificial Intelligence for Social Good member. “The technology they use behind the scenes is typically what we see in highly funded think-tanks within other industries. Taking into consideration our visibility into the technologies used by companies around the world, I can say that there are no other companies in the installed-sales industries that are doing what they [Buy It Installed, Inc.] are doing.”

Timing is Everything

CompSource, Inc. got a head start in integrating Buy It Installed™ and will complete their integration in the fourth quarter of 2017. Bellone says “Integrating the Buy It Installed™ option now gives us plenty of time to prepare for our big selling season ahead.”

About CompSource, Inc.

CompSource Inc., founded in 1991, carries over 400,000 name brand computer hardware and software products sourced from 1,700 vendors and distributed through 16 warehouses across the United States. With aggressive pricing and speedy delivery, they set themselves apart from their competitors.

Artifex releases Ghostscript® 9.22. the First PDF interpreter to Support the New PDF 2.0 Standard

Novato, CA (PRWEB) October 04, 2017

Artifex Software today announced the release of the latest version of its flagship product, Ghostscript 9.22. This new version of Ghostscript supports the recently released PDF 2.0 (ISO 32000-2) specification. PDF 2.0 is the next generation of the standard Portable Document Format, and this new specification marks the first major update in the post-Adobe world of PDF.

“Artifex prides itself on being a leader in our field and providing the most up-to-date product possible for our customers,” said Miles Jones, President of Artifex Software. “In keeping with our leadership, we are happy to say that Ghostscript is the first PDF interpreter to announce support for this important new standard. We look forward to this benefiting our many customers as they adapt to the PDF 2.0 specification.”

It has been nine years since the previous update, PDF 1.7, became ISO 32000-1 in May 2008. While there are a lot of changes, they primarily affect developers, giving them clearer, cleaner direction for developing software in the PDF ecosystem. Every section of the specification has been completely rewritten with a focus on gaining an accurate and unambiguous description of all, mostly existing, features. Artifex has provided articles on the new specification and the key implications for developers in two blog posts, The Coming of PDF 2.0, Part 1 and Part 2.

With the release of version 9.22, Ghostscript becomes the first and only PDF interpreter that supports the reading and rendering documents in the new PDF 2.0 specifications. Updates to the Ghostscript code base include UTF-8 improvements, Page-level Output Intents, Black point compensation, and Halftone origin.

Ghostscript is a Page Description Language (PDL) Interpreter and industry leader in PDF, PostScript, PCL, and XPS rendering and conversion. First released in 1991 as a freely available open source alternative to Adobe’s PostScript products, Ghostscript has grown to be widely recognized as a premier independent implementation of all the leading PDLs, offering the most comprehensive set of PDL interpreters for rendering or conversion available on the market today. A highly customizable solution that runs on all major operating systems, Ghostscript has been deployed on a full range of host-based and cloud solutions. Small and highly versatile, over 2,000 customer years of operational testing and delivery has refined Ghostscript into one of the most widely used and trusted software solutions available.

Funding will bring Bioarray’s first product, BA100, to clinicians

Farmington, CT (PRWEB) October 05, 2017

Bioarray Genetics, a personalized medicine startup, announced today that it has received $4 million in Series B Equity Financing from Quark Venture and GF Securities through their Global Health Science Fund and Connecticut Innovations.

Bioarray, a personalized medicine startup housed at UConn’s Technology Incubation Program (TIP) in Farmington, is a molecular diagnostics company developing predictive cancer treatment test technology. The platform, consisting of unique genes and proprietary algorithms, provides patient-specific information to determine the optimal course of treatment.

Bioarray will use this funding to bring their first product, BA100, to clinicians and conduct R&D on other tests in the company’s pipeline, including those focused on treatments for metastatic breast and colon cancers.

“Bioarray’s unique approach to developing a diagnostic test is an excellent example of how genomics is advancing personalized medicine. BA100 has the potential to impact oncology care, in the very short term, by sparing patients exposure to ineffective chemotherapy and unnecessary toxicity.  Bioarray’s clinically validated tests are unique; there is nothing else on the market that addresses this need,” said Karimah Es Sabar, Chief Executive Officer of Quark Venture and Director of GHS Fund.

BA100 is a breast cancer diagnostic test that provides actionable information about patient response to the standard of care chemotherapy treatment. BA100 is able to identify the population of triple negative breast cancer patients that have the worst survival rates and would benefit from more aggressive treatment. Bioarray’s test isolates RNA biomarkers from the initial tumor biopsy, and in combination with the company’s proprietary algorithms, can predict the patient’s response prior to treatment.

Currently, this test is intended for patients with stage 1, 2, and 3 non-metastatic breast cancer, and is administered immediately after diagnosis before the doctor decides on the patient’s treatment plan.

“We invested in Bioarray at the earliest stages of company development,” said Pauline Murphy, senior managing director of investments at Connecticut Innovations. “We’re excited to see the company progress to this stage and we look forward to their continued success in the future.”

According to Bioarray’s CEO and Founder, Marcia Fournier, this funding provides the startup with critical support to continue development of a technology that reduces healthcare costs and improves patients’ quality of life.

“This new funding enables Bioarray to fulfill our mission to eliminate the trial and error approach in the treatment of cancer patients. We are excited about our growth and the ability to expand our team with diversified skills and expertise,” said Fournier.

Originally based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Bioarray chose to locate their startup in Connecticut because of the vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem and robust state investment in bioscience, according to Fournier. She credits UConn’s Technology Incubation Program with allowing her to transition from a virtual company.

“UConn is committed to supporting growing technology startups that will help continue to position Connecticut as a hub for bioscience,” said Radenka Maric, UConn’s vice president for research. “From world-class faculty experts to state-of-the-art facilities to our proximity to The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine—UConn has a tremendous amount to offer these companies.”

Bioarray plans to explore other applications for their platform technology, which could serve as a valuable tool for pharmaceutical companies in the drug research and development process. The technology provides novel insight into the mechanism of response and interconnected cellular pathways and could be used to stratify patients in clinical trials, as well as develop companion diagnostics to improve the response rate to specific treatments.

Global Health Science Fund was jointly established by Quark Venture Inc. and GF Securities in late 2016.

Environmental Assessment is now available for public review and comment. It describes the potential environmental impacts resulting from federal actions that would approve a new lease for the Navajo Generating Station and its related facilities.

Phoenix, Arizona (PRWEB) October 05, 2017

The Bureau of Reclamation and Bureau of Indian Affairs have issued the environmental assessment for the Navajo Generating Station Extension Lease. It is now available for public review and comment. The environmental assessment describes the potential environmental impacts resulting from federal actions that would approve a new lease for the Navajo Generating Station and its related facilities.

Without the extension lease, NGS would cease operations by the end of December 2017, requiring retirement of the plant to be complete by 2020. However, to enable NGS operations to continue until December 2019, with plant retirement to begin in 2020, the Navajo Nation and SRP (on behalf of NGS non-Federal participants) have agreed to the extension lease. Reclamation and BIA have made preliminary determinations that the bureaus’ respective federal approvals and actions related to the extension lease would not result in findings of significant impact to the human environment.

Under the extension lease, coal combustion at NGS would cease by December 22, 2019. Retirement of NGS would begin at that point and be completed by December 22, 2024. The lease provides five years for the Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District to complete plant retirement and 30 years for long-term monitoring and remediation. The lease extension would also allow time for new owners to come forward to operate the plant beyond 2019.

A public review and comment period will remain open until November 3, 2017, and both Reclamation and BIA will consider all relevant comments received throughout this time on the adequacy of the EA and draft decision documents. The Extension Lease is available for public review at https://www.usbr.gov/ngs.

Comments should be as specific as possible, and provide data and information to support statements or conclusions. Please send written communication to:

Following the tragic incident in Las Vegas that senselessly left so many innocent victims dead or injured, U.S. Security Associates (USA) has produced a video outlining important personal safety steps to take in the event of an active shooter situation.

Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) October 05, 2017

Following the tragic incident in Las Vegas that senselessly left so many innocent victims dead or injured, U.S. Security Associates (USA) has produced a video outlining important personal safety steps to take in the event of an active shooter situation.

“Our hearts grieve for those killed and injured, for the families affected, and for the first responders and law enforcement who cared for the injured and located the shooter,” USA President and CEO Richard L. Wyckoff said. “We hope that you find this information useful, and we encourage you to share it.”

The six minute video provides a brief guideline for preparation and responses one can take to improve their personal safety.

Anyone who is confronted by an active shooter situation can protect themselves with better knowledge and situational awareness. Stay alert, pay attention to people and the changing environment, and always identify possible exit and hiding places.

The core concepts of this Active Shooter training are simple: Get Out, Hide Out, Take Out. Those six words reflect practical responses that can guide personal safety when every second counts.

• Get Out: find the closest and quickest path to escape the area assuming it is safely out of the line of fire
• Hide Out: if you cannot safely flee, look for cover sturdy enough to shield you from bullets, or if not, find a place that conceals you from the shooter’s view
• Take Out: barring the opportunity to escape or hide, find something such as a chair, broom or fire extinguisher to use as a weapon to disarm the shooter, then attempt to catch the shooter off guard

USA is providing the informative video to all its clients and to the public at large in the hope that it can be helpful to anyone’s personal safety if confronted with an active shooter situation.

This video is only a snapshot of the many training resources that are available, including the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) website, Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) website, or visit our homepage at http://www.ussecurityassociates.com.

The campaign was created by Mike Arms, President and CEO of Helen Woodward Animal Center, a non-profit organization based in San Diego. The Control Group is a supporter of the Helen Woodward Animal Center, and the company covers adoption fees for any employee who adopts through the center.
