Accelerated Outsourcing provided exactly what Southern Company was looking for. Accelerated helped us determine the financial impact of outsourcing our mainframe environment. Their analysis was thorough and presented well. Their objective analysis helped us with our decision to keep our mainframe processing in-house. They really do ‘put the horse before the cart’, which makes their process unique and cost effective. I would be more than happy to be a reference for their services and I would use them again in the future.

I have done outsourcing deals several times in past roles and I am also in the process of doing it again. I am working with the same person that I had successful projects with in the past. John Pitcock of Accelerated Outsourcing is one of the most talented technology professionals that I have ever worked with. He can really get things done and make them happen the way you need them to. His integrity is above reproach and I would recommend his services to anybody with the highest professional recommendation that I could give to any business partner.

Accelerated Outsourcing helped us with a proof of concept for considering outsourcing our IBM mainframe environment. The process provided an excellent framework that enabled Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center to perform an objective feasibility analysis for outsourcing its IBM mainframe infrastructure. In the end, a decision was made to retain IBM mainframe resources in-house rather than outsource to a third party. The proof of concept was critical in helping us make an objective decision that we feel comfortable with for the next planning horizon. Adrian Bannister, of Accelerated Outsourcing, proved to be knowledgeable, objective, and great to work with. Accelerated’s methodology provided an excellent planning tool to help address the outsourcing question. It proved to be straight forward, easy to follow, and resulted in quality comparative information related to our environment and relevant prospective outsourcing vendors. Working with Accelerated Outsourcing helped us to easily answer the question of whether or not to outsource our Mainframe infrastructure.

Accelerated Outsourcing was great to deal with – their experience, service and professionalism are excellent. I want to commend their efforts in taking us through the ‘outsourcing maze’. They introduced us to vendors we would never have found on our own. They also performed project management tasks to keep us and the vendors on track with our evaluation. Their experience with outsourcing was most helpful as I worked through the people and process issues during the evaluation project. Working with Accelerated felt truly like a partnership and the collaboration added significant value to the delivery and outcome of the project. I would gladly recommend them to any other organization considering IT outsourcing.

Accelerated took the guesswork and emotion out of the decision to outsource. Their work was professional and fact-based which helped our executive team make a well informed decision. There is quite a bit of noise in the market place about how much you can save with outsourcing. I strongly recommend Accelerated to help separate the noise from the facts, so your organization can understand whether or not the savings are real.
