Networx - Transition
to Transformation
Aligning Technology with Your Strategic Objectives
The business
of government is becoming more complex, increasing the demands being placed on
federal agencies. New executive priorities must be addressed. Agency-wide
initiatives need to be supported and a growing number of regulatory requirements
must be met.
This translates into a number
of challenges for federal CIOs and their staffs, including the need to
consolidate, standardize, and modernize their IT infrastructure, meet security
mandates --such as TIC -- and transform their communications capabilities. All
while improving operational efficiencies and containing costs.
Addressing these challenges can
be complicated, but with transformational programs such as Networx, implementing
the solutions to address them doesn’t have to be.
Join Federal Computer Week and Verizon Business for an executive breakfast on January 26, 2010 at the Willard Hotel in
Washington, DC for Networx - Transition to Transformation -- Aligning Technology with Your Strategic Objectives.
Register today for this executive breakfast seminar and engage with current and former Networx managers, senior government officials, technology leaders, and industry
executives on how the Networx contracts can help agencies to
transform your agency's IT infrastructure!
