GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. – Sept. 9, 2008 – CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR) has been ranked among the top ten outsourcing vendors, according to The Black Book of Outsourcing, a customer experience survey analyzing more than 4,000 outsourcing vendors around the world.
The Black Book of Outsourcing survey, conducted annually by Brown-Wilson Group, a Clearwater, Fla.-based research firm and consultancy, aims to identify the 50 best-managed global outsourcing vendors as well as identify rankings for specific capabilities and within vertical industries.
The survey ranked outsourcing vendors according to responses by executives and others involved in outsourcing decision-making about their experience and satisfaction with current suppliers. The Brown-Wilson Group surveyed nearly 400,000 global outsourcing buyers to determine their attitudes toward and satisfaction with outsourcing providers. More than 24,000 responses were returned, audited and validated.
CIBER’s rankings include:
“CIBER’s ranking as a best-managed company puts it above many assumed industry leaders and above several leading Indian outsourcers,” said Doug Brown, co-founder of the Brown-Wilson Group and co-author, The Black Book of Outsourcing. “CIBER has built on its core business of providing application solutions and services, expanding its services to include infrastructure services. CIBER offers its clients services that cover the full solution lifecycle, from architecture, design and development through maintenance, hosting and support.”
In the Infrastructure Outsourcing rankings, buyers assessed CIBER’s capabilities in seven categories: applications monitoring, help desk services, data center services, desktop support, storage and servers, LAN WAN network management, and security and disaster services.
CIBER was ranked first among mid-tier infrastructure vendors in ten of the 18 attributes: vendor overall preference/vertical industry recommendations; client relationships and cultural fit; trust; breadth of offerings, client types and delivery excellence; deployment and outsourcing implementation; customization; reliability; marginal value adds; support and customer care; and best-of-breed technology and process improvement. No other mid-tier vendors were ranked first in more than one category.
“Expertise in help desk services and IT infrastructure across multiple verticals brought this mid-tier outsourcer again to the head of the services pack. Higher education and Government clients were most approving,” said Scott Wilson, co-founder of the Brown-Wilson Group and co-author, The Black Book of Outsourcing.
“This aspect of our go-to-market business model as a company has been vital to winning this new, larger, longer business, often with international delivery requirements,” said Mac Slingerlend, President and Chief Executive Officer of CIBER. “We see IT Outsourcing as potentially growing faster than any other portion of our model and bringing other business units along.”
“CIBER has embarked upon a strategy to offer mid-tier and enterprise customers another choice for their infrastructure and IT operations outsourcing needs. From data center hosting, to systems monitoring, to infrastructure support, to help desk services, we are delivering enterprise-class services that help our customers reduce costs and improve results. We are thrilled to see our work and achievements recognized in the industry,” said Mark Perlstein, President of IT Outsourcing at CIBER.
