"Outsourcing is moving in the direction where clients are increasingly shifting the responsibility for their IT success to their IT vendors. The implication for IT vendors is that their roles have become more complex and less clearly defined. A teaming approach; multi-disciplinary skills; the ability to integrate and cross-leverage hardware, software and services solutions; and building lasting client partnerships have become prerequisite to managing outsourcing projects.
IBM’s goal is to be the trusted partner of choice for IT outsourcing clients in Singapore and globally. IBM will leverage SCS’s COMIT program as a strategic and an important platform for training and re-training our employees. This will position IBMers ahead of the industry in terms of being equipped with the latest skills and expertise for helping our clients fulfil their needs and chart their future requirements."
