Gartner Announces Service Line Management Membership Program for Vendors
New Gartner Program is Tailored to Address the Business and Technology Issues of Service Line Executives
STAMFORD, CONN., June 26, 2003 — As the IT market slowdown persists, service line executives are faced with a seemingly impossible challenge to deliver growth while maintaining margins for their business. To help address the unique business issues facing these executives, Gartner, Inc. (NYSE: IT and ITB) launched the Service Line Management Membership Program.
The Service Line Management Membership Program offers access to the full power of Gartner in a program that combines focused Gartner research, targeted services and valuable decision-support assessments.
"Despite the fact that 2002 was one of the worst years ever for the U.S. IT services marketplace, pockets of opportunity persist," said Alexandra Whitehead, group vice president and chief of research for Gartner. "Transforming these potential opportunities into actual revenue growth requires innovative portfolio management strategies supported by go-to-market models, which are flexible enough to address customer requirements as they continue to evolve over the next few years."
