Tuesday, November 03, 2009
Third new client for TPI in State and Local Government sector in past month
HOUSTON, Nov. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- TPI, the largest sourcing data and advisory firm in the world and a unit of Information Services Group, Inc. (ISG) (Nasdaq: III, IIIIU, IIIIW), an industry-leading information-based services company, today announced it has been selected to advise the State of Vermont on using IT more efficiently and cost-effectively.
Under the contract, TPI will perform an independent assessment of the use of desktop, infrastructure and networking technologies in all state agencies and independent departments. Comparing internal costs and performance with data from the public and private sectors, TPI will identify options based on current best practices for reducing costs, improving service delivery and enhancing data security and IT governance.
"IT is increasingly critical to performing the core missions of state government, especially in economically challenging times," said David Tucker, Interim Commissioner, Department of Information and Innovation, and State CIO. "We chose TPI because of its track record of providing objective, fact-based advice to help Public Sector clients better serve their citizens and taxpayers."
The State of Vermont is the third large government entity to select TPI to perform an IT assessment in the last month, following closely the State of Washington and the City of Houston. Other TPI clients in the Public Sector include the State of Indiana and the State of Georgia and the national governments of Australia, Sweden and Singapore.
"As they confront budget crises, states and municipalities have a golden opportunity to eliminate inefficiency in IT services," said Don Flores, Partner and Director, State and Local Government Services. "Kudos to the State of Vermont for taking a proactive approach to this challenge. We look forward to helping it achieve solutions for the future that are affordable and sustainable but still meet the State's high standards."
