Avnet has added information management and protection software products of Commvault to the former’s General Services Administration schedule contract.

Avnet said Wednesday agencies can purchase Commvault’s data backup and recovery, cloud and infrastructure management platforms and services via the governmentwide procurement vehicle for information technology offerings.
