One of the largest operators of Applebee's restaurants has chosen Contingent Network Services to manage its information systems. The deal with Thomas and King is worth about $1 million for Contingent, based in the Cincinnati suburb of West Chester. Contingent will deploy a virtual private broadband network to link all 97 Thomas & King locations by the end of 2008. The new network should allow for faster credit card processing, remote network monitoring, energy management and high-speed Internet access across all its locations. Founded in 1984, Contingent Network Services designs, deploys, supports and manages data communications networks and systems.
