Under the terms of the agreement, Affiliated Computer Services (ACS) will provide a cost-effective method of expanding UMass Memorial’s IT systems through planned deployment of servers and data storage based on the hospital system’s specific IT infrastructure needs. ACS will provide networking, data systems, data center hosting, desktop, help desk, telecommunications, disaster recovery, and resource planning services.

We are confident our extended partnership with ACS will elicit continued success and help reposition our hospital system for future growth.
