Park Place to Deploy Help to Areas Impacted by Hurricane Idalia

August 29, 2023

CLEVELAND, OH, August 31 — Park Place Technologies is working with clients in the aftermath of Hurricane Idalia. The hurricane was the strongest to hit the Big Bend region of Florida in 125 years. More than 400,000 people are without power as the storm dumps heavy rain over several southern east coast states.

Park Place has set up a Command Center in Westborough, Mass., that is ready to deploy whatever resources clients need. Clients will have immediate access to our supply chain, tech support, field team and suppliers. Our entire coastal region field team is on “high alert” and will be ready to deploy in the areas most impacted.

Park Place has been reaching out to critical end-users such as hospitals to ensure they are ready to engage us if they are hit hard.

Park Place has identified customers who could be impacted and have moved additional material into the potential landing zone. Field Engineers are planning for the worst and hoping for the best. We are also putting our complete Florida Panhandle/Gulf Coast Staff on high alert, making sure they are ready to deploy.

By preparing for potential weather-related interruptions of service, Park Place is proactively investing in data center up time to ensure peace of mind of our clients.

For further information on service in any impacted areas, please call 800-343-4654.
