I keep the company of
Cambridge Technology Partners, Inc.
because of the core business values that we represent
The
Cambridge Difference Our core values set us apart from our competition.
They drive our growth by enabling us to share project risk with our clients
while delivering strategic business solutions that improve their competitive
positioning. And they help us manage our growth by providing consistency
as we open new offices, introduce new services, and enter new markets.
Our core values include:
A Focus
on Innovation We deliver growth-oriented solutions that yield a high
return on investment - solutions that make our clients smarter and faster
than their competition, not just down-sized and more efficient. As a result,
projects quickly pay for themselves, promoting high client satisfaction
and repeat business for Cambridge.
The
Need for Speed We deploy these innovative solutions rapidly, while
they still have strategic impact. With our methodology, tightly integrated
services, and developmental efficiencies, we can deliver results in unprecedented
time frames - typically within three to twelve months.
On-Time,
On-Budget Delivery We commit to the success of our deployments with
fixed time/fixed price contracts. Integrating technology-based solutions
can be risky - many clients have been burned by "runaway" projects
with significant time and cost overruns. Our approach lessens the risk
to our clients and imposes a discipline to deliver projects on time and
on budget.
The
Soft Skills To ensure that clients use the solutions we deliver to
their full potential, we focus on more than their technology component
- we also address people, behavioral, and organizational issues. We build
consensus on objectives and functionality and gain buy-in from all parties
- up front - to ensure that everyone is "on the same page" and
committed to the project's success.
Knowledge
Leadership and Transfer During projects and through our educational
services, we willingly transfer the know-ledge and technical expertise
we've gained over hundreds of client engagements. Our executive education
programs, including the Cambridge Management Lab and Cambridge Information
Network (CIN), teach us about the issues our clients face and give us the
opportunity to teach them what we've learned from experience.
Business-Driven
Results We craft technology solutions that support our clients' business
strategies and prioritize functionality to ensure that every component
of the application creates business value. This strategy prevents clients
from lengthening projects with "nice to haves" that won't create
strategic advantage. It also enables us to deliver the return on investment
promised at the outset of the project.
