Best of the WestTo our clients and friends: Welcome to the first issue of our new e-newsletter, Best of the West. In this issue, we address several topics that are on the minds of many of our clients: - IT and business process due diligence - a critical, but often-overlooked aspect of acquisition or merger negotiations.
- The often-difficult decision whether to replace or improve existing technology.
- And an increasingly popular strategy for driving competitive advantage through better business intelligence.
Many clients and friends of West Monroe Partners have told us that they value our insights about current business issues and the perspectives we bring to their key challenges. So initiating this newsletter is one step that we are taking to extend the dialogue about these issues throughout our network. I do want you to know, however, that we respect your privacy and your wishes regarding communication from West Monroe Partners. Please feel free to review our Privacy Policy and use our website to update your Communication Preferences. The past year has been a particularly gratifying one for West Monroe Partners. We were extremely pleased to be named one of Consulting Magazine’s “Seven Small Jewels,” to achieve Mircrosoft® Gold Certified Partner status, and to expand to new locations in Seattle, Columbus, Montreal and Toronto. All this less than four years after opening for business! With success comes growth, and growth means that we always are on the lookout for good people. We have added some exceptional talent to the West Monroe Partners team in recent months, with much help from our network of clients and colleagues. We continue to look for people who can complement the West Monroe Partners team and create value for our clients. We welcome your help in this quest. Thank you for your confidence and support. We look forward to continued collaboration over the rest of the year. Best regards, Dean Fischer In this issue |
