Pultorak & Associates IT Strategic Sourcing Solutions - “The art is in making the change” February 12, 2008
Seattle, WA – February 12, 2008 – Pultorak & Associates (www.pultorak.com), headquartered in Seattle, WA, offers a full line of leading-edge IT management consulting and training services, and is excited to announce the addition of a new practice – IT Strategic Sourcing and Procurement. This practice will help customers cut costs and simplify management of their IT sourcing and procurement processes and vendors through the application of field-tested best practices and Pultorak & Associates proprietary benchmarking and contractual databases.
Services offered include: deal restructuring, relationship governance best practices, sourcing strategy development, global sourcing practices assessment and improvement, opportunity assessment, staffing model development, RFI / RFP process best practices, sourcing strategy assessment and roadmap, and vendor management best practices.
“We’re all about ‘the Business of IT’”, says Founder David Pultorak. “We help our customers better support and manage IT services through our IT Service Management practice, in-sourced or outsourced, but our customers are demanding more, and for good reason: better value from IT services starts with procuring the right services in the first place, with the right contracts, governance mechanisms, vendors, and vendor management in place, whether it’s managed services or telecommunications you’re talking about. That’s what our IT Strategic Sourcing practice is all about—getting it right out of the gate and helping you get it fixed if you’re not getting the results you want”.
Vince Pultorak, who heads up the practice, adds, “There are a number of things that are really exciting about our IT strategic sourcing practice. First, we have a database of proven best practices and benchmarking, contract terms, and relationship governance knowledge you just can’t get anywhere else. Perhaps most importantly, while we do have IT sourcing and procurement expertise on staff, more importantly, we also have expertise in organizational change leadership, for one simple reason—what we say around here is that when it comes to sourcing and procurement improvements, ‘the art is in making the change’. I can’t stress that enough—in our experience the key to successfully optimizing value in this area is getting people to change their day-to-day behavior, and that’s precisely why our expertise in organizational development has been the key to our customers’ success”.
