The growth in the IT service industry worldwide is undeniable. More and more companies continue to look for innovative ways to increase revenues, decrease costs and enhance customer and partner relations in today’s global digital economy.

While many businesses may be familiar with the top five IT service providers, there are other well established firms experiencing equal or better growth. For example, Global Consultants, Inc. (GCI) has become one of the fastest growing providers of end-to-end information technology services and solutions worldwide. The privately-held company has 22 offices and six global delivery centers in the U.S., Europe, China, and India.

It primarily services Global 2000 customers in a range of industries, including banking and financial services, telecommunications, retail, life sciences and healthcare, technology, insurance, and manufacturing. Services provided include Application Development Management, Professional Services, Testing & QA, SAP/ERP Integration and Support and E-business Solutions.

One of GCI’s primary advantages and a big reason for its continued growth is its flexible BestShore Delivery Model. BestShore is GCI’s global delivery methodology using onsite, offsite and offshore so that it can be tailored to the customers’ economic, technological, cultural, and strategic needs. Following a thorough analysis of a host of factors including the nature of the assignment, the customer’s key business drivers, and the overall cost-benefit advantages, GCI proposes a delivery approach that is most appropriate for each client.

For example, an IT project can easily be handled through three or four different countries, depending on what will work best for the client. The goal is always to provide the very best services possible, and not simply look at price.
