Samsung SDS Chooses PRTM Management Consultants as Partner

Waltham, Massachusetts, United States

PRTM, a global operational strategy firm, has been chosen as a partner by Samsung SDS to leverage the management consultancy's innovation expertise. Samsung SDS is a dedicated provider of IT and consulting services to the Samsung companies and the top IT service provider in the Asia-Pacific region. Samsung SDS evaluated the major global management consulting firms and invited PRTM to become its alliance partner based on PRTM's reputation, intellectual property and the firm's ability to drive breakthrough results.

In Kim, President and CEO of Samsung SDS, and Michael Aghajanian, PRTM's Americas Managing Director and executive sponsor of the partnership, recently announced the alliance at The Shilla hotel in Seoul. PRTM and Samsung SDS will leverage the strengths each company brings to the alliance to create a best-of-breed dedicated team to drive innovation within the Samsung companies and across Asia. PRTM will staff this dedicated team with veteran consultants, including a lead director from PRTM's Electronics and Computing Consulting Practice.

"PRTM is thrilled to work with one of the leading companies in the world as they enhance their reputation for innovation," said Aghajanian. "As the innovation leader in management consulting, PRTM is especially honored to help Samsung SDS and its clients achieve breakthrough results, making them more competitive globally."

Kim agreed. "I am confident that the alliance with PRTM, the top-tier operational strategy consulting firm, will further enhance the global capabilities of Samsung SDS," he said.

PRTM also will deploy a PRTM Certification Program through Samsung SDS's learning institute, where qualified Samsung SDS consultants will gain product lifecycle management (PLM)-related skills based on PRTM's Product And Cycle-time Excellence(R) (PACE(R)) framework. The two companies plan to leverage those consultants certified by the program in jointly staffed teams for PLM consulting projects in Korea and Asia. This certification program will help build capacity for PLM in a region where these solutions are in high demand.
