Lots of news today, what with planes landing in the frigid waters at the end of La Guardia airport of the Hudson and the Philadelphia government facing another billion dollar budget deficit over the next five years.  So the news that Mark Schweiker is leaving his post as President of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce may have a hard time breaking through.

From the Philadelphia Business Journal:

Mark Schweiker is departing as president and CEO of the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, where he has served for the last six years, and is taking a job with PRWT Services Inc. in Center City.

The former Pennsylvania governor will become president of the business process outsourcing unit of PRWT and will leave his chamber post June 30. PRWT is one of Philadelphia’s largest minority-owned businesses and continues to grow in the city. It has offices at 1835 Market St.

…

In his new role, Schweiker, a former Bucks County commissioner, will be responsible for overseeing PRWT’s unit that provides back-office support and outsourcing services to state and local government agencies across the country.

Could a certain local government looking to cut a lot of costs really fasts be in the market for some advice on “back-office support and outsourcing”?
