ORANGE, Conn., June 18, 2007 — Tangoe, Inc., a leading global provider of enterprise communications lifecycle management software and services, today announced the appointment of Douglas Castro as its new senior vice president of federal sales. Castro will focus on implementing a strategy of dramatic growth in sales to federal agencies and defense contractors.

"We’re excited to have Doug join us, given his deep knowledge of the public sector from his years both in the Air Force and sales to federal agencies," said Tangoe President and CEO Al Subbloie. "With our comprehensive communications lifecycle management solutions, we believe that government agencies will be able to achieve measurable results quickly. We’re excited about the impact that Tangoe’s technology and technology-based services will have for our federal clients. I’m confident that Doug’s technical knowledge and strategic acumen will be a valuable asset to both Tangoe and our federal clients.”
