Greenwood Village, CO, September 26, 2009 --(PR.com)-- CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR) today announced a live webinar featuring Forrester Research, Inc. on “ITO Trends in the Mid-Market: Overcoming Challenges in the Current Climate” from 9-10 a.m. Mountain Time, Sept. 29. This strategic webinar will focus on the unique trends and behaviors among mid-sized companies seeking to outsource their IT infrastructure.

Paul Roehrig, one of Forrester Research Inc.’s leading analysts in IT outsourcing, will discuss several challenges based on yet-to-be published Forrester research on the mid-market space. Roehrig and Anthony D’Ambrosi, COO of CIBER’s IT Outsourcing Division, will discuss trends and nuances of mid-sized companies during the webinar, including:

· Service level agreements
· Getting Tier 1 service without Tier 1 pricing
· SaaS and cloud computing for a mid-market environment
· Retaining flexibility within ITO contracts
· Importance of cultural compatibility with an outsourcer

According to D’Ambrosi, “Mid-market companies often have even greater difficulty with limited capacity and overwhelming bandwidth constraints as their IT professionals often wear many hats; others face the challenge of attracting and retaining expertise in their IT department, or only requiring specialized expertise on a spot basis. A mid-market firm can have IT challenges that are quite unique; understanding how and what they buy requires a provider with a focused business approach and offerings truly tailored to their needs.”

According to the 2009 Forrester report by Paul Roehrig, Clients Speak Out on Infrastructure Outsourcing Satisfaction, “With economic pressures on most firms remaining high, a growing number of firms are turning to infrastructure outsourcing as a way to free up cash and devote more time to using technology to enable the core business rather than non-differentiating ‘keep-the-lights-on’ IT. In this environment, a key differentiator for global IT infrastructure service providers is the ability to consistently implement technical and business change in a complex outsourcing deal.”

CIBER has been ranked as the #7 Best Managed Outsourcing Vendor in 2009 by The Black Book of Outsourcing, a customer experience survey analyzing more than 4,000 outsourcing vendors around the world.
