Dallas, TX, Sept. 21, 2009 - Third Sky, Inc., the leading full service IT Service Management (ITSM) solutions provider, and newScale® Inc., the market leader in IT Service Catalog and Service Portfolio Management software solutions, announced today the availability of their new joint Service Catalog Quick Start program at the itSMF USA Fusion 2009 conference in Dallas, Texas. This new program combines Third Sky's acclaimed Service Catalog workshop and consulting assistance with trial usage of the newScale PortfolioCenter Workgroup Edition, enabling organizations to quickly define, publish and review their evolving Service Catalog.
"Our customers already receive tremendous value from our focus on accelerating their Service Catalog development projects. This program combines Third Sky's Service Catalog templates and expertise with newScale enterprise-class software. Customers will be guided through the modeling and definition of their services, and then provided with the ability to professionally publish and review their completed Service Catalog - all for a price that any project team can afford," said Michael Robinson, Vice President of Professional Services for Third Sky.
The customer's trial instance of newScale PortfolioCenter Workgroup Edition is provided in a hosted, cloud-based model. "We're excited to offer Third Sky customers the opportunity to leverage the newScale PortfolioCenter Workgroup Edition in a hosted model," said Ken Remington, Vice President of Alliance and Channel Sales for newScale. "This gives them the ability to get up and running with a published Service Catalog quickly and easily, without needing to deploy the software on-premises."
Considerable Service Catalog intellectual property is provided by both Third Sky and newScale as part of this program. "This joint offering combines the strengths of both companies to deliver rapid time-to-value for our customers' Service Catalog projects," remarked Ken. "The first questions in any Service Catalog initiative are typically ‘How do I define my services?' and ‘How can we effectively communicate and market what it is that IT does?' With Third Sky's ITSM expertise and our market-leading Service Catalog software, this program provides the answer."
