# [What are Meridian's competitive strengths?]{.smallcaps}

# Meridian is committed to fulfilling our service commitment to you. We offer customer solutions, provided by caring local teams empowered to respond to customer needs. Since we are not a manufacturer, we offer best-of-breed products from many vendors and therefore, unlimited variety. With over \$15,000,000 annual revenues and 100 employees, Meridian stands ready to offer all the expertise needed for a Major National Account of your magnitude. Meridian Imaging Solutions is the largest woman-owned and operated office equipment dealer in the DC Metro area and serves the entire country through Ricoh Major Account Program (RMAP). We have maintained a healthy growth rate of 35% each year since 1996, and we are debt free. Because we are not publicly held, our decisions are customer driven rather than stockholder driven, making you the customer, the ultimate decision-maker.

# Meridian's past performance will serve as a glowing recommendation for our capabilities. Specifically, the workflow and processes of our typical customer are very similar to your requirements. 

# Meridian's business strategy is built on two critical facts. First, companies are as individual as people are, and you need fully customized, document-management and network solutions delivered in a cost-effective way to realize the utmost potential of your own business strategies. Secondly, information is the universal currency of enterprise today, and must be managed as carefully as cash flow. 

# Meridian's mission is to lower your costs, simplify your workflow and streamline your billing. We intend to make the necessary investments to consistently satisfy your needs, including:

# Focus on your workflow and customize your 'least-cost' solution

# Empower you with access to your account via internet (24/7)

# Offer you state-of-the-art products from a variety of leading vendors

# Allow you to acquire added products and services as needed -- utilizing whatever portion of our total solutions that is appropriate to their current state of development

# Ensure you can make informed choices because of the quality of service and the level of detail we provide you, *and most importantly*

# Maintain the highest level of personal service. 

# Above all, Meridian stands apart, not because of price or technology, which are the costs of doing business in this marketplace, but rather because of the caring individuals who serve the customers and take pride and ownership in Meridian.
