IPS Technology Services plans for healthcare IT growth

Pradip Sengupta had climbed to the heights of the corporate world, attaining the title of chief information officer. But he needed something more, so seven years ago he started his own company, IPS Technology Services, in his spare time.

"I wanted to do something special," Sengupta says.

Today the Troy-based IT company employs a handful of people, normally fewer than 10, depending on the project it's tackling. Sengupta made IPS Technology Services his full-time job almost three years ago when the side projects began demanding his full attention. He hopes to expand his staff to 10 employees in 2011.

"This year is much better," Sengupta says. "I have a goal of being a $2 million company by 2015."

IPS Technology Services provides end-to-end IT services for small businesses. Sengupta expects most of his growth in 2011 to come from healthcare IT service demands. He sees the digitizing of doctors' and dentists' offices requiring more robust networks to handle the increased workload. To him that will mean a lot of opportunity for his IPS Technology Services, at least enough to demand all of his time and that of many others.
