Fails WP:COMPANY, and appears to be primarily advertising. Sources used in the article contain a passing mention, and a quick internet search only brings up general directories and directories of businesses. BenLinus1214talk 16:26, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Despite the claims and praise heaped in the article, I can find nothing to show that this company ultimately passes notability guidelines. There are a few press releases and the like out there, but nothing in reliable sources. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 18:07, 22 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • For full disclosure's sake I wanted to mention that I blocked the account creator. In their defense somewhat, I do see where they have tried to tone down the promotional prose, so I think that the advertising is kind of unintentional and is one of those things that happens to people who work in marketing- they're just used to writing in that tone so they don't pick up on it easily.

  • Delete. I can't find any reliable sources that discuss this company. As mentioned above, they do not seem notable. DiscantX (talk) 11:29, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I am sorry to say that I have not been able to find 'reliable sources' which support the notability of this company .... based on online sources. Suggest deletion without prejudice for recreation if such refers to sources which support notability. Quite unfortunate ... this company has been in the business services sector for 20 years and no doubt has contributed to competitiveness and collaboration, though without attribution accessible / accepted by Wikipedia. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 04:18, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
