Technology is a key driver for business transformation,” he said. “Businesses are looking to transform their business models and operations to compete more strategically as they respond to fundamental changes in economic conditions and customer needs.  It has become even more critical to view technology implementation through a ‘business first’ lens.  This is in line with what we’re seeing in the marketplace and why we’re very pleased to be recognized by Forrester as a leader in this strategically significant space.”
