GREENVILLE, S.C., Dec. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- ScanSource, Inc., , the leading
international value-added distributor of specialty technology products, has
enhanced its Partner Services offering with the addition of Rollouts, Inc., a
leading provider of on-site support and project management for company
rollouts.

cost basis.

geographic areas they may not have had access to in the past. We believe the
services provided by the Partner Services Group and Rollouts will enable the
reseller to offer more value and additional services to their customers." The mission of the Partner Services Group is to act as an extension of its
partners' businesses by providing innovative programs and support services that
