We believe that organization boundaries should not be barriers. Our business is to improve your company's effectiveness in working across these boundaries, whether using external resources, or delivering support and professional services.
Our philosophy is that the right degree of partnering can make for better business. And, partnering is made up of people, trust and working together, beyond the signed agreements.Think180 Services addresses the tactical implementation of outsourcing and vendor management, as well as professional services delivery.
We do this by ensuring that the people managing the delivery and integration of the work have the skills and understanding needed to be effective. We work with both clients and vendors to enhance the overall effectiveness of outsourced projects and programs. And we can plan and develop uniquely tailored training to meet client-specific business needs
