Professional Services Division Expands Cornerstone Offerings:
Industry Veteran James Dargan Joins Cornerstone
Bloomington, Indiana – May 26, 2006Determining what technology products are best for your company is hard enough, but figuring out how to develop end-to-end systems that serve company needs is even harder. That is why Cornerstone Information Systems is launching a Professional Services organization that backs senior consulting expertise and great products with superior, customized support. The new services reflect their customer-oriented approach that provides unmatched product expertise and technical skills before implementation, during the critical first weeks of product deployment and on an ongoing basis for long-term support.
“Our goal at Cornerstone is to take our current product-centric company and provide our customers with simple, one-stop shopping for implementation so that they can focus on their core competencies,” explained Mat Orrego, president and CEO of Cornerstone. “On our end of the equation, it will decrease the time it takes for us to provide a complete solution. The work that we do to get clients up and running from the start will certainly pay off in the end, and they will have a more functional solution to show for it.”
James Dargan, 22-year American Express veteran and industry expert, will be a key part of the new Professional Services team that will be working directly with agencies and corporations to streamline technology selection and execution to lower costs and drive productivity and profits up. This direct connection will allow clients to leave the technology to professionals, while it provides Cornerstone with a single point of contact for complex assignments.
The new business model that arises from Cornerstone’s addition of the Professional Services division will focus initially in two areas: assessment packages for consultants to deliver as part of a pre-engagement offering and custom solution development that centers on existing applications or expertise.
Cornerstone is currently organized around four areas of products and services:
- Managed Services, including iBank and iQCX products,
- Education Services that focus on training,
- Core Product Focus, including QC, Document Delievery and Reporting products, and
- Support Services, including Product Support, ResRule writing and implementation services
