It has been eons since any organisation has been the single source for all business operational support needs. For so long , everything from production of the business products to their delivery and support had been the way business operated. Everyone appreciates that those days have gone and the outsourcing of most of the business elements is continually under review for cost and performance improvements.
Today, the glue that binds it all, is the IT Infrastructure. Establishing and maintaining a premium talent pool within an organisation is challenged by the international demand for skilled and experienced staff. Staff that work in conjunction with the internal permanent team, build a Hybrid model, to bind the essentials of IT support.
A Managed Services Provider (MSP) is a 3 rd party company that can be the catalyst that defines the requirements of such a hybrid model. MSP’s work in conjunction with their clients and assume responsibility for a defined suite of activities, services, and procurement deliberations.
For many companies, this is a strategic decision to work with a partner who can provide access to the skills pools required, which often cannot be attracted to their business. In 2013, Gartner Group predicted that 3 rd party service would move from 20% of the market to 70+ by 2020. Indeed, it did achieve that and more. Outsourcing has firmly arrived in that market.
Choosing an MSP brings together staff and management with the subject matter expertise, which is often missing as organisations look to reform, to address new business imperatives.
The Allied Technologies Group (ATG) is one such MSP and we invite you to consider our end to end offering.
