Celebrating 60 Years of Excellence: A Heartfelt Thank You to the Maryland Community
July 10th marks a momentous occasion for Advance Business Systems as we proudly celebrate our 60th anniversary. Six decades of unwavering commitment, passion, and innovation have propelled us to where we stand today – at the forefront of business solutions, proudly serving our community. As we reflect on this milestone, we extend our deepest gratitude to the community that has been an integral part of our journey.
Our story began in 1964 when local legends Alan and Lois Elkin founded Advance Business Systems. Their visionary leadership and dedication laid the foundation for what would become a lasting legacy. The Elkin family, with a commitment to excellence and a passion for customer care, carefully nurtured Advance into the thriving entity it is today. While we sadly have said goodbye to our visionary leaders, their indomitable spirit lives on, defining the very essence of who we are.
Over the years, as the business landscape transformed, Advance evolved while steadfastly preserving an exceptional customer experience. Recognizing the changing needs of our valued customers, Advance evolved its suite of services to become the best-in-class Managed IT and Managed Print Services programs that they are today. The commitment to excellence that Alan and Lois instilled in our DNA has driven us to adapt and innovate, ensuring we always meet the dynamic demands of the modern business world.
While Advance’s journey so far has been remarkable, we believe that we are just getting started; that the best is yet to come. The spirit of innovation, dedication, and passion that has defined us is more vibrant than ever. We are not just a company with a rich history; we are a company poised for a future filled with continued success and growth.
Recognizing that the next generation of the Elkin family would not be joining Advance, our President, Jeff Elkin, embarked on a mission to find the perfect partner to carry forward our unique culture and values. After an extensive search, we found our ideal match in Flex Technology Group. This strategic partnership allows us to retain our distinct identity while gaining access to the extensive resources, national footprint, and manufacturer support of a larger organization. This partnership positions Advance as the leading Managed Print service provider in the country, capable of serving any organization from a small business to a national enterprise located anywhere within the 50 states.
Looking ahead, we are excited about the endless possibilities that the future holds. Our commitment to providing unparalleled services remains unwavering, and our partnership with Flex Technology Group positions us for even greater success. With the support of our dedicated team, loyal customers, and the Maryland community, we are confident that Advance Business Systems will continue to thrive for many years to come.
As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, we express our heartfelt gratitude to the Maryland community for six decades of unwavering support. Our journey has been shaped by your trust, and we look forward to continuing to serve you with excellence. The best is yet to come, and Advance is just getting started on the path to another sixty years of success. Cheers to the past, present, and future!
