| Founded in 1982,
KCI, Inc. has established itself as a leading supplier of hardware,
maintenance and leasing solutions for large scale data centers
- supplying hardware ranging from Enterprise Servers to ESCON
Directors and all the elements in between. KCI, Inc. provides
a solid, comprehensive integrated approach to tackling the complex
hardware requirements of todays modern IT environments.
The Companys activities fall into three technical areas
which together span the wide array of products and services
required by a large scale IT facility. Our Enterprise Hardware
Group handles processors, storage, Magstar tape, silos and
connectivity. Our Leasing Group leases the products we sell
as well as hardware purchased from the original equipment
manufacturer. Our InRange Group is the world's largest independent
reseller of InRange products and also provides maintenance
services for the InRange product line.
| KCI, Inc. is headquartered
in Mahwah, NJ just a few miles northwest of New York City
with satellite offices Denver, Los Angeles and London.
Our European affiliate, KCI, Ltd. operates in twenty-three
EC and former Eastern Bloc countries, and KCI World Trade
does business in Asia, Japan, Australia and other Pacific
Rim markets. |

At KCI, Inc. we offer a wide variety of maintenance coverage
plans for the products we sell, ranging from support by the
original manufacturer (manufacturers maintenance)
to overnight parts delivery for those companies who choose
self maintenance.
 |
In 1987 the Company opened
its own reconditioning center. Today, the center spans
over 15,000 square feet and is capable of storing up to
1,000 machines. This year alone, we estimate over 1,200
machines will be reconfigured, refurbished and recertified
in our state of the art facility. |
KCI, Inc. has enjoyed many highlights over its 20 year plus
history. In 1984 the Company began trading mainframe channel
switches and established a solid reputation as a leader in
switching technology. In 1992, KCI, Inc. earned the distinction
of being the first used equipment dealer to trade an IBM 9032
ESCON director. Since that time we have sold over 1500 ESCON
directors and individual port card upgrades. Over the years
the Company has expanded its expertise beyond the highly critical
connectivity arena, which is at the heart of the mainframe
complex, into the areas of processors, storage, tape and printers.
When SANs were introduced a short time ago the Company was
able to leverage its many years of connectivity experience
and enter the new SAN marketplace as a key player early on.
KCI, Inc. looks to the future with great optimism. As specialists
in channel architecture and large scale systems, we are witnessing
the rejuvenation and growth of the mainframe market, as well
as the explosive growth of Storage Area Networks and Fibre
Channel technology. Our challenge and our commitment are to
continue to evolve with the ever changing technologies to
meet the complex, mission critical needs of our customers.
