Wyndham, headquartered in Dallas, not only will buy products, but will sponsor a $75,000 internship program for On-Target, also based in Dallas. Its customer list includes Alcatel, Ericsson, Texas Instruments and TXU.
Wyndham president and CEO Ted Teng says the deal hopefully will act as a model for minority purchasing and development pacts in other major cities. On-Target employs 107 people, primarily inner-city residents. Wyndham is the first hotel client in On-Target's growing customer roster.
