Rutherford's appointment comes at a key juncture as 3t Systems prepares to expand service offerings, announce strategic partnerships and invest resources to build brand reputation.

"However, we have reached a point where market potential is at its peak and strategic marketing and sales are essential. I am confident that with Jan at the helm, 3t Systems will become synonymous with IT excellence in healthcare, construction and finance."
