Tecsys Inc. (TSX: TCS) announced it received the "Agency Auth In Process" designation on the FedRAMP Marketplace following sponsorship by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The Montreal-based supply chain management company said the designation represents progress toward FedRAMP Class C Certification, which covers systems handling sensitive data where unauthorized access would have serious consequences.

FedRAMP, or Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, establishes security standards for cloud services used by federal agencies. The Class C Certification was formerly known as Moderate certification.

"Achieving the FedRAMP 'Agency Auth In Process' designation with the support of HHS is a significant milestone in our commitment to delivering secure, compliant cloud solutions to U.S. federal agencies," said Peter Brereton, President and CEO of Tecsys.

The designation allows federal agencies to view Tecsys' certification progress and engage with procurement teams seeking compliant cloud solutions. The company's Elite platform provides supply chain management capabilities for healthcare and government operations.

Tecsys operates more than 1,000 customer sites worldwide across healthcare and distribution sectors, including over 50 health systems such as Texas Children's Hospital, Intermountain Health and Sanford Health.

The company's Warehouse Management System received recognition from Gartner as a Challenger in the Magic Quadrant for the 15th consecutive year. Tecsys trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the ticker TCS.
