Market Reality and Validation Of Why Managed Offerings are so valuable

- WSJ – 2.7% headcount projected in most finance departments this year. Need to run the
same processes with less technology staff.

- EPM and BI - Mission Critical Systems, 24/7 requirements.

- Oracle/Hyperion Staff - Hard to find resources with the expertise and availability both
technical and functional.

- EPM and BI encompasses lot’s of technologies, tied hard to have all the skills and expertise
in one or two staff.

- Many solutions are now hybrid, on-premise and in the cloud, so remote teams make sense. (
especially high quality onshore teams)

- Managed Services is not only an option, but now a proven one.
