This is all about fine tuning the delivery model and fortifying VSBLTY as a more comprehensive full suite provider. VSBLTY has had a team Mexico City for some time.

The cumulative EBITDA is approximately $2M over the life of the contract. In addition, this deal fixes operational and infrastructure costs so that further growth of the network can be accomplished without significant incremental infrastructure cost. “
