NEW
YORK, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MiCTA,
a national, non-profit group purchasing organization located in
Saginaw, MI, has named Lightpath
as an approved vendor for its Internet, Ethernet, Wavelengths, Dark
Fiber, Private Networks, Voice, and all of the company's managed
service offerings. The Master Service Agreement will enable MiCTA
members to purchase Lightpath's services at a discount.
"MiCTA is pleased to welcome Lightpath as an Approved MiCTA
vendor," stated Tim von Hoff, Chief
Operating Officer of MiCTA. "A volunteer committee selected
Lightpath through a highly competitive screening process to provide
an array of the highest quality communications services to its
members."
"For more than three decades, Lightpath has served as a fiber
connectivity provider-of-choice in some of the most robust and
demanding markets in the country," stated Doug Turtz, Chief Revenue Officer of Lightpath.
"Our customers in the education, government, and healthcare sectors
come to us for solutions that solve some of the most challenging
connectivity needs. We are gratified to be able to bring these
solutions to MiCTA members."
Lightpath's proposal was selected as part of MiCTA's rigorous
RFP process, which evaluates products and services on behalf of its
nationwide membership. MiCTA's master service agreements deliver
substantial cost savings to its members and eliminate the need for
MiCTA members to conduct their own expensive and time-consuming
individual RFPs.

organizations, including educational institutions, government
agencies, and healthcare organizations.
