But by the end of the year CIOs were too distracted by the economic destruction surround them to do any outsourcing deals. That's all poised to change in 2009. The only problem is, that may be bad news for both IT services providers and their IT leader customers. http://www.itworld.com/management-amp-strategy/59632/offshoring-outsourcing-2009-what-does-future-hold#comments IT management/strategy Feature Accenture EDS IBM Global Services IT services outsourcing Mon, 22 Dec 2008 10:51:06 -0500 ITworld staff 59632 at http://www.itworld.com Report calls for more collaboration between vendors and the channel http://www.itworld.com/channel/54412/report-calls-more-collaboration-between-vendors-and-channel Anecdotal evidence suggests that the channel is weathering the sluggish economy better than most, but that's not to say there are challenges.

According to a new Accenture report, channel partners are trying to beef up their bottom lines by continuing to add new services and solutions. http://www.itworld.com/channel/54412/report-calls-more-collaboration-between-vendors-and-channel#comments Channel News Accenture Thu, 21 Aug 2008 09:55:46 -0400 dblacharski 54412 at http://www.itworld.com Accenture report upholds EPA data-center findings http://www.itworld.com/government/53356/accenture-report-upholds-epa-data-center-findings A report from Accenture that looks at the impact of emerging technologies on reducing power consumption in data centers has largely upheld the findings in a study published last year by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. http://www.itworld.com/government/53356/accenture-report-upholds-epa-data-center-findings#comments Government Green IT News Accenture data center environment EPA Sun, 29 Jun 2008 16:22:53 -0400 abennett 53356 at http://www.itworld.com
