“Like all symbiotic relationships, our intention is to derive beneficial solutions from our partnership with Hitachi Data Systems, alliance partners and our customers,” said Jun-ichi Kazama, General Manager, Information Systems Group, Hitachi Asia Singapore. “True partnerships are built on the exchange of information and skills that transcend traditional supplier-customer relationships with the end result being well-thought-out solutions that are competitive and effective,” he added.
It takes 2…
Increasingly, customers today are facing the uncertainty and new competitiveness arising from globalization. This presents the need for enterprises to differentiate themselves. The result is specialization and refocusing on core activities. “In the real economy, customers need real solutions; every dollar spent on their IT infrastructure not only needs to be measured and justified, but it must show real tangible returns on that investment,” said Patrick Lim, Vice President and General Manager for Hitachi Data Systems Ptd. Ltd “These are compelling reasons why customers today seek winning partnerships with suppliers,” he concluded.
