The federal government shutdown had an impact on potential business from state and local governments, with some programs being put on hold.
Q: Are you seeing any change in sales cycles or anything that could potentially move some of those opportunities forward or push them further out? A: The sales process is exciting, but our focus is on implementations and getting customers we’ve already sold to implement faster. The sales pipeline for every division is rich. Each business unit has nuances in implementation, and the UCO One initiative is helping standardize information input, but customer integration timing is beyond our control. – Louis Hope, Chairman and CEO
