"The new facility in Morrisville, the largest of our three Managed Services Centers, is expected to house up to 50 employees. Raleigh is a strategic location for ePlus and holds a tremendous pool of technical talent in the Research Triangle Park area from which we can grow our staff and broaden our service offering. In addition, the new Managed Services Center has close proximity to many of our key partners, including Cisco and NetApp, which will enable us to expand our service capabilities to joint customers."

    Founded in 1990, ePlus has more than 900 associates serving federal, state, municipal and commercial customers nationally.

    "RTP is known across the globe as being a leader in technology," said Representative Tom Murry. "I will continue to support economic development projects that bring high paying jobs to North Carolina."

    "Creating high-paying jobs for the people of North Carolina has been my priority since day one," said Senator Josh Stein. "I congratulate the collaboration of the governor's office, Secretary Decker, and the legislative delegation in making this jobs announcement a reality."

    "This is a welcome jobs announcement for the people of Senate District 22 and the region," said Senator Mike Woodard. "These jobs were made possible because of our strong working relationship with the Secretary of Commerce, as well as our business friendly climate in North Carolina."
