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!
