ATLANTA, June 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Optomi, a technology talent company, is rebranding to Optomi Professional Services (OPS) to appropriately reflect its expansion into the onshore outsourcing solutions business and the healthcare IT space.

Todd Black, Co-founder and COO of OPS stated, "We are thrilled to have 1st Solution USA joining the OPS family. We would like to congratulate Kimberly and her team on their success in building a strong business. Having worked with Kimberly earlier in our careers, we have a great deal of respect for her. There is a fluid cultural synergy between our firms and we are confident
we will do great things together."
